Take Your Rubber Chicken to Work Week is January 18th-31st, 2010. Yes we know, but Take Your Rubber Chicken to Work Fortnight is stuffy. We don't do stuffy. Not even a little.
UPDATE: Deadline to enter extended to the end of day February 3rd! Don't miss out!
In previous years these rules and stuff have gone on rather long. In the interest of respecting a wide variety of attention deficit disorders, here is everything in an eggshell a nutshell:
- Take your rubber chicken to your place that you work; if you don't work, then take your rubber chicken to that place where you do what you do do (I don't mean your doo doo place!) The rubber chicken(s) (you may take more than one) must be made of rubber, and must look like a chicken (no duckies!) It doesn't have to be a Twisted Oak Original Recipe Rubber Chicken.
- Take pictures or video of your rubber chicken. Hint: One good picture is more likely to win than 50 average pictures. Please just send your best. Another hint: FOCUS!
- Send us your high resolution picture(s) or video (email tastingroom@twistedoak.com), or post them up someplace and point us at them (Hint: if you post them, make sure they are publicly accessible! What we like best: post them on the wall of the Twisted Oak Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/twistedoak)
- You have until January 31st to send us your entry. We will acknowledge your entry. If you don't hear back from us in a day or two, panic.
- Fabulous prizes will be awarded as compensation for the best photos and videos submitted. The Twisted Judges will select a number of semifinalists, and a winner will be chosen by public vote. If there is a tie in the final voting the winner will be chosen by Twisted Oak Winery staff.
- Submissions will be judged for humor, originality, creativity, and technique.
- You must be 21 years or older to enter.
- By sending your photos and/or videos to Twisted Oak, you agree to let us publish them on our web sites and publish them in any printed matter. We don't expect this permission to be exclusive, and we can't and won't transfer that permission to anyone else without asking you first. And when we do publish your photos and/or videos, we will always give you full credit. That's forever.
- Twisted Oak Winery reserves the right to disqualify any entry that does not meet the spirit of the event, or does not follow the rules. We also reserve the right to disqualify any votes that are determined to constitute ballot stuffing. Play nice!
- Twisted Oak Winery will not be responsible if you get sacked for bringing your rubber chicken to work. Know thy Boss.
And the prizes? All qualified entries will receive a $10 MasterCluck gift card, which can be used to order wine online at twistedoak.com. Semifinalists will receive a $75 MasterCluck gift card, and the winning entry will receive a $250 MasterCluck gift card!
