One (1) Free Ticket for Tonight's (Fuck) Detroit Game: CONTEST


Okay, a few of you may remember about a month or so ago, I made a FanPost about how I had gone through some turbulence in regard to my ability to attend tonight's game.  However, due to the benevolence of a certain someone here who requested anonymity, I was given two tickets!  However, my friend had to cancel on me last minute, and the rest of my crew be trippin', yo!  (That's right, I'm gansta!)  So I have an extra ticket, and so I figured the only fair way to decide who gets it is by way of trivia contest! 

These questions all pertain to things OTHER than hockey (some are sports related, others not so much) that I personally have interest in (for the record, I'm a theatre major with a music minor - search Wikipedia think accordingly).  I will ask ten (10) questions, which you can answer VIA EMAILING ME at jmilldramadude@yahoo.com.  Feel free to answer in the comments for fun, but I don't want to give someone who takes this at 2 pm to have an unfair advantage over someone who checks it at 10 am because other people have been answering all day (hopefully).  ANSWERS IN THE COMMENTS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.

The contest will end at 3:00 PM central time today, at which time the winner (the one who gets the most right, obviously) will be notified via email. 

Good luck, and...uh-go!

I had no chance at winning.

Missouri State > Southern Illinois

Marble Slab > Coldstone

And I’ve never seen or heard of a movie called “Snakes OF A Plane”, so I’d have no idea how to name its sequel.

Cobras Up My Ass?

Is that the answer to Snakes on a Plane sequel.

Great contest idea on this.

Answer Mom makes me bare knuckle fight a hobo in the basement in order for me to earn a free ticket. It is never pretty…never.

Have fun at the game tonight. I’ll be at a public skating session tonight serving as a positive role model in a youngster’s life and making sure no one fucks with her while she learns to skate. I hope her mom puts out.

North Co! North Co! North Co!

I remember a few weeks ago I saw on NHL.com that the wings were having a sale for student tickets…. like $15 for upper bowl seats and $35 for lower bowl. And I saw all, “OMG OMG!!! I have to see when they’re playing the blues!!” and I got WAAAY over excited when I saw on their schedule that they were playing today. I ran around screaming in excitment. Then I looked closer…. and it is a blues home game

then I felt like crying.
