BWW Contest: Win Tix to Opening Night of The Wedding Singer! (enter here!)

We got offered a very cool contest opportunity for the message board community here that I couldn't turn down - a chance to win FREE tickets to the opening night of The Wedding Singer...

The days of 80s culture are all contained in a few simple words – Delorian Daze, Pop Rockin, Slink-y-fied... How would you define this era of big hair, neon spandex, and the Rubik's cube? Pull out those photo albums and sift through your old vinyl records and contribute your original word to our Defining The 80’s Project. All entries are asked to include their original 80’s term, its definition, and its use in the form of a sentence.

All entries will be eligible for submission into our Celebrate the 80’s Contest. The best 80’s vocabulary word will win a PAIR OF TICKETS TO OPENING NIGHT OF THE WEDDING SINGER!


Here's a sample:
Word: Delorean Daze
Definition: A term used when a girl doesn’t like a guy for who he is- just for his Delorean.
Sentence: Glen is such a loser. Julia is totally Delorean Dazed.

The winner will be picked and announced right here on Wednesday, April 26!

To enter, hit reply to this message and post your entry!

Good luck!
Rob
