You see them everywhere. Family gatherings...office parties...the mirror. Crazy Christmas sweaters are an epidemic this time of year! And if you're a fan of fun, you probably own one. Well, now's your chance to put that garish holiday garb to work for you!
Richard Thompson and GoComics announce The Cul de Sac Christmas Sweater Contest! It's simple, really: Send us a hi-res photo of yourself in your most ridiculous Christmas sweater. If you really want to score some points with the judges, try incorporating Cul de Sac and your hometown newspaper into your photo in some way. Richard Thompson and GoComics will pick our four favorite entries, and an online vote will determine the winner.
What does the winner get? How about The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, by noted Cul de Sac fan Bill Watterson, plus a Cul de Sac book signed by Richard Thompson himself? And since this is the season for giving, we'll even give three runners-up signed Cul de Sac books, too!
Here are the important dates:
- 12/15 - Contest opens for submissions
- 12/18 - Submissions period closes at 11:59pm EST
- 12/21 - Four finalists announced, online voting begins
- 12/23 - Voting closes at 11:59pm EST
- 12/24 - The winner is announced!
As you can see, there's no time to waste! So shake the mothballs off of your most colorful Christmas cardigan and send in your photo today!
To enter the contest, send your photo, along with your name and hometown newspaper to CuldeSacContest@amuniversal.com.
