Between now and Oct. 21, the only place to play the new JONAS online game - "Horace Mantis Academy Field Day Fun" - is at Verizon Online.
Available during that period only at http://surround.verizon.net to anyone with a broadband connection, the game is the newest in a series of Jonas Brothers videos, games and other features on Disney Connection, the online family entertainment site that is a standard feature Verizon broadband customers can access at no additional charge.

"JONAS: Field Day Fun" is a fast-moving sports game featuring characters from JONAS, the Disney Channel show starring the Jonas Brothers, and set in the show's Horace Mantis Academy.

Each mode has items players can pick up to add score and time bonuses to their game, as well as obstacles they must avoid.
Players tackle three rounds of each game, with every round being more difficult than the last. At both the beginning and the end of the game, players can choose to click the link to watch the JONAS "Clip of the Week."
