2014 Caption Contest - Week 17

2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 17. How would you caption this picture? The same pic will show here and on Facebook. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.

Week 16 - and PassPorter - winner!

Week 16 Caption Contest results! I’m changing up the reveal format a bit to give the runners-up a little more play, since they are always creative and funny, and I’m not sure how many people click through to the comments to read them unless they themselves are tagged. So first – the Honorable Mentions! Lisa Lavelle: "Failing to get the spotlight in Fantasmic he hoped for, Brad decided to be a show-stopper anyway...."; Don Kistler: "Greg*, you don't have to do this. We're going to win in Las Vegas with our singing!"; Patrick Stayton: "Mickey auditions for Vocal Majority with a stirring rendition of This Little Light of Mine."; and Stupid Guest Tricks' Lasolimu: "To prevent potential lawsuits, Wombat reminded Mickey that safety comes first, even if you have magic powers." Congrats to all!

And this week’s top prize, and winner of a brand-new PassPorter Walt Disney World 2014, is avid runner and car salesman (though not usually at the same time) David Wilmoth -- his first win this year and second win overall!

Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

*Greg Clancy, Musical Director of the Vocal Majority.

2014 Caption Contest - Week 16 - PassPorter giveaway!

2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 16 -- THERE IS A PRIZE!! Thanks to the generosity of previous prizewinner Darren Grabowski (who has been to Walt Disney World so many times he has the place completely memorized and no longer needs a guidebook), I am able to give away another brand-new PassPorter Walt Disney World 2014, a $25 value, to the winner of this week’s contest! And since I'm still a lawyer and there is another actual prize this week, there are Official Rules that you agree to by entering. You can read them at http://tinyurl.com/WombatRulez.

So, how would you caption this picture? Comment below! The same pic will show here, on Facebook and Stupid Guest Tricks I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. Whoever submits the winning caption will receive their very own PassPorter Walt Disney World 2014 (along with the usual glory of winning)!!

Week 15 winner!

Man, oh man, this week’s pic fired up your creativity! There were a record fifty-one entries into this week’s contest, including tons of funny suggestions of what I was painting on the chair: Wombo, Alto, Wino, Uh-oh, Wrongo, Plano, Pseudo… I got lots of laughs out of them, far more than I could pick as honorable mentions! In the end, though, this caption by worship leader extraordinaire and all-around great guy Trent Blackley topped them all, not least because it makes fun of someone other than baritones for a change. Congratulations on your very first win, Trent!

Honorable Mentions:  Melody O'Grady: "Karl" (think about it!); Alan AJ Irby: "Little known fact that there was a Wombat in 'Animal Crackers.'"; Larry E Collins: "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil, Totally evil!"; Graham Smith: "It's just that my right leg is more photogenic."; and Stupid Guest Tricks' WEDFan: "How am I going to fit Wombato on the chair?" Kudos also to SGT’s hobie16 for photoshopping the picture himself so that I’d painted “OPRAH” on the chair, in a nod to the fact that I just reversed one of the Marx brothers to add myself in!

Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday – and another prize giveaway!

This week’s belated winner is tech guru Darren Grabowski, who coincidentally was responsible for the Stupid Guest Tricks outage that delayed his coronation! Congratulations on your second win of this year, Darren!

Honorable Mentions:  Mike Reid: "Luke, what's this... Oh, change the channel. This is a re-run of Letterman's Stupid Human Tricks!"; Lisa Lavelle: "Looking back to Episode IV, we found the inspiration for Jar-Jar Binks...."; Wayne Franklin: "I knew this franchise would go downhill after the Disney buyout, but wow."; and SGT’s YANXWIN: "This can NOT be our only hope."

Week 13’s contest brought the second win of 2014 to my longtime friend Bob Littlepage! Congratulations, Bob! You win this week’s caption contest, one billion dollars cash, and the love and respect of millions! (One of those is true.)

Honorable Mentions: StupidGuestTrick's darph nader: "You're going to like the way you look -- I guarantee it."; and Zazu: "And if you decide you don't want a second date, you wear this one!"; Eric Abrams: "As the Stars try to secure a playoff spot, Brad managed to get a tryout as a 'faceoff specialist.' The team cut him after only 5 seconds."; Jay Marsh: "Sorry, but we are fresh out of Wombat masks. How about this thing instead?"; Patrick Stayton, to the tune of "The Music of the Night": "Softly, deftly, this mask shall caress you. Take it, feel it secretly possess you. Open up your mind. Leave your wimpy mask behind. Put this on because you know that I am right. It's time to give them all a proper fright!"; and Darren Grabowski: "Brad unveils his latest collection entitled, 'My kids need therapy.'"
