Monday, October 18, 2010 at 12:09PM 
The return of the Caption Contest seems to be going really well so far, so here’s another chance to give it a go. I’m expecting some good captions to come in for this unusual pic. It’s probably gonna take a really good one to beat out captioner 'Race 5' since he’s won the last two in a row! But don’t let the competition scare you… just keep the winner’s prize of a bacon sandwich at OSH11 in mind and you’ll be fine : )
So, you’ve got til Wednesday evening at 9pm EDT to submit your clever/funny/cool captions to go with this image. Then, I’ll pick the best 5 and put ’em in a poll for everyone to vote on all day Thursday and Friday.
The Rules:
1) Max of 3 submissions per person
2) Submissions go in the 'comments' area
3) Game ends Wednesday at 9pm EDT
4) Keep it clean!
Then, anyone who wants to can cast their vote starting Thursday morning and running thru til 9pm EDT Friday. The winner will be posted Saturday morning 10-23-10. AvGeeks on your mark, get set… go!
