500th Post Contest...Winner is Lakota!

dbeckomdbeckom Posts: 2,193 ✭✭✭✭✭
With my upcoming 500th post comes my first contest.

The standard rules for all contests will apply...you must be on the good traders list and I would like to see a minimum of 50 posts. This contest will run for a total of 48 hours....ending at 11:00pm Eastern time on Thursday, August 4th. In the event that nobody has picked the correct date by the close of the contest, I will extend the contest by 24 hours...after 24 hours, the person with the closest date will be the winner.

I got married in the month of September, so my anniversary is coming up quickly. This is a very special day for me and the brother that picks the correct date will receive a special gift.

For an added bonus, the winner will then have two guesses as to how many years I've been married. If the correct number of years is guessed, I will add to the winnings. Good luck to all.

    I'll go with Sept. 25 as that is the best day to be married on, at least it is for me.

    Ok, I gave the contest til Thursday night, but the correct date has been chosen already. Lakota, I already have your address...I'll get your package out ASAP.

    Now, you have 2 guesses as to how long I've been married. Hint: Of all the guesses that were made so far, all were way over!

    I want to thank everyone that participated in my first contest. No matter how many prizes, trades, and bombs I send out to people, I am the ultimately the winner. In my short time here on the forum, I have gained a ton of knowledge and met a lot of great BOTL. You guys are the greatest! Thank you all for welcoming me and making me feel like I truly belong here.

    Well the lowest of the guesses was seven years. So if you said everyone was way over, I think I will go with 3 and 4 years of marriage. Thank you so much for the contest.

    Dang! I wish I'd have said "WAY OVER"! We are coming up on our very first anniversary, and I'm looking forward to many more. I remind my wife all the time that its 'til death do we part' ;)

    I'll get your package out tomorrow. Hope you enjoy!

    Oh well it's all good. Thanks for a great contest. I wish you all many great years of marriage ahead of you. I had to go with four cause that's how long I've been married for.

    Ok, the winnings should be in Daniel's hands. Hope you enjoy bro!

    Sir, just got home from being TDY this week. Saw it sitting on the bed when I walked in. I will post pics in a bit. All I can say is--A picture is the only thing that can do this justice. This was huge!
