Do you want to win this, bad boy? We know you do. The winner will be judged by which entry is the most creative, the most engaging, and the one with the biggest bribe for the judges (Lawyer’s Edit: NO! NO! No bribes!) Fine. No bribes, but creative and engaging writing. While you’re at it, make it funny! We want laugh out loud funny. We want to make Carl from Accounts laugh so hard that milk shoots from his nose. Only the best will do that because we don’t think he’s had milk since 1982.What do you write? How about you tell us about the time your picked up a hitchhiker on his way to Seattle to start a band and you said “A cool name is Nirvana!”? How about when you drove up in a ride so fly that a priest used the Lord’s name in vain? You could also share some travel “life hacks” you know. For instance, did you know if it’s your birthday most airlines will let you exit the plane via the inflatable slide? How about a historical “fact”? Did you know that in his second flight the Wright Brother’s almost crashed because someone in economy didn’t put their tray table up?Bring the funny, keep it original, and make our judges laugh till they make that gross dry heaving sound.
