Our fearless leader, CGilmo has offered up a $25 eBay gift certificate, and tasked me with coming up with a contest. I came up with a scavenger hunt that should be fun, and offer up a few laughs.
Rules:
1) One entry per person.
2) Contest opens after this thread has been posted, contest closes Sunday, February 27 at 2 PM Eastern.
3) There are ten items to 'find' in this contest. Each one is worth 1 - 5 points, and scoring will be done by myself and G $MONEY$. That means a more creative / funny entry will be worth more than on ethat just fits the criteria. Judges decisions are final.
4) You cannot post an identical entry to a previous entry. This will be unlikely, but I am putting it out there anyways.
5) You can edit your post up until the end of the contest, but we will be monitoring to see if you just edit your post to use the cards another user posted at a later time. So, you can leave a few blanks while you are looking, but don't cheat and only look in this thread.
The Contest:
Post a scan of a hockey card which meets each of the following criteria (there should be 10 cards total). Originality will be rewarded, so put some time into it, and have some fun. You do not need to own the cards you are posting.
1) A card featuring epic facial hair.
2) A card featuring funny looking / strange fans in the background.
3) A card featuring a superstar cameo (ie a superstar is pictured on a card, but it is not his card).
4) A card featuring an ad for a fast food restaraunt on the boards.
5) A card featuring a hockey player wearing a baseball cap (+1 if the cap is for a team other than the team he plays for at the time of the card)
6) A card that shows a jersey with the logos of two different teams (not airbrushed in any way).
7) A card where a player is posing for the camera.
8) A card where the player is wearing dress pants.
9) A card where a goalie is using a MONTREAL stick.
10) A card where the player is using skate laces as a belt for his hockey pants.
BONUS (+5): A card where a player is using a Branches hockey stick.
