Won a cool contest from one of the local papers!

Post by Lefty »

I got an email this morning that started out "You won..."as I was reaching for the delete button I noticed @pressherald and said hey wait a minute, that one is local. So I open the mail and low and behold I won a Sky Box at the local AA minor league baseball game for Monday after this one. I accepted and did a little snooping to see how much this was worth and skyboxes go for $600 for 22 people. I was explaining this to Mrs. Lefty and she asked did it come with anything, I said most contests do. We called to check up on it and the short of the long was we get this food and beverage package worth over $300 with pizzas dogs, ice cream and drinks. I am the most popular relative in the family right now...

They all want to go. This is awesome. I never win contests.

yup, $300 dollars worth of stuff. Pizza dogs chicken soda, water ice cream and even snacks which I am guessing will be cheese and crackers.

Cool, how’s the weather? Even though you’re going to be inside, you don’t want everybody showing up drenched.
