Hey Whitey Bulger "Fans":

I was thinking the other night it might be fun to have a free raffle for a couple of Bulger related prizes.

The winner gets to select one of 3 books I have about the fascinating South Boston crime gang and its leader and also receives a special bonus gift! ;) (The total value is only about $10 so dont get TOO excited but I still think we can have some fun with this)

If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll put your name in the drawing. Entries need to be received by next Tuesday at 12 noon.

What do u think??

Alright, Mr. Fuji has entered the ring!

Now how about someone else...dont be shy. Did I mention this contest is free?

Also, you dont even have to be a big Whitey afficionado to enter, UM fans of all tastes are invited to join in. (Except fans of the Lost Loves segments. Love and Whitey just dont mix :happyface )

I like whats happening!! More entries, more fun!!

CrystalDawn, despite my obvious affection for you I cannot accept duplicate entries......however, in the spirit of Whitey Bulger I might be open to bending the rules in exchange for a cash "donation" :)

Cool Whitey Fact: Since we are doing this little contest, did you know our buddy Whitey won something? Yep, he is on record as a co-winner in the Massachusetts state lottery. (My guess is he pointed a gun at the actual winner and demanded a share, nice guy huh)

Well how I can complain when you say it so sweet...;) It just occurred to me that after I initially posted I should have locked the thread. Then my chances would have went up considerably...:lol:

So you thought about locking the thread to guarantee a win crystaldawn.......I suppose thats what happens when you watch the Kevin Poulsen aka Dark Dante segment too many times. You get contest rigging fever!!

In any case, Id better notify the authorities of your new hobby.:)

Well considering you offered to throw a win my way for the right amount of cash, maybe we'll have adjoining cells..:lol:

Hey:

I want to thank everyone who entered the Whitey Bulger contest. Last nite I wrote the names of the entries on individual pieces of paper. Then tossed them into my "Goodyear" baseball cap, mixed'em up and randomly pulled one.

So without further delay, the winner is (drum roll please) ............Titan826! Congratulations Titan on your historic victory! (I know its not "historic" but I think it sounds good :crazy: doesnt it?)

Anyway, Titan I sent you a private message. Just provide me with your mailing address and I will send out your prizes right away.

Thanks again to everyone who participated, I hope win or lose it was sort of fun.

THIS WAS RIGGED! I DEMAND A RE-COUNT!!!

:lol:

Just kidding... Congrats, Titan!

And a big thank you to Chris for having the contest. I was happy to at least have a shot at the title(s). Hopefully we can do another one sometime.

Thanks, Chris! :wave:

Because so many of you emailed me asking about the bonus prize (lets see, CrystalDawn wanted to know and...hmmmm....okay maybe only one person asked but at least someone expressed interest!!) here is link with the pic:

Now, 2 people from this board, myself and Titan, the contest winner, are proud owners of these kooky Bstickers (mine's plastered on the back of my 1980 Toyota Cressida which I feel, gives my luxury ride that extra special touch of class):)
