__________________________________________________________________________________________________


***PLEASE READ CAREFULLY***

First and foremost, this is one of the most, if not the most generous items donated to help raise funds for Operation Yellow Ribbon of SJ. Every penny collected here will go directly to helping with care package expenses for OYR of SJ. The person donating this item wants absolutely nothing in return except knowing he/she is using this awesome item to do further good in the universe. It is donated in honor and in memoriam of a friend and co-worker who passed away.

Now to the fine print: (AS I AM TERRIBLY NERVOUS TO DO THIS THREAD)
I could easily just list this here or on Ebay for a set price and be done with it, giving it up to the first person with the deepest pockets. That would be the easy thing to do.

In the good spirit of this forum and all what this band has taught us, and all that we do for each other, I’d like to try a different approach and that’s give everyone a chance at this very rare poster. For anyone on these forums that will accuse the winning fan being chosen as rigged; let me beat you to the punch- no one here has a God complex (as you accused a kind soul in another thread). Get over it. This is done fair and square and randomly. Don’t like it, don’t donate.

If this becomes too much of a pain in the rear for me, or if someone has issues with it and bitches about it, I reserve the right to shut it down, refund any donations, and just do the aforementioned and throw it up for sale here or on Ebay. If I do shut it down for whatever reason, all donations will be refunded in full. I can't stress this enough; if this becomes more of a burden then I'm pulling the pin and taking the easy way out. My intentions are pure in where I want to do something really good out of this kind donation on both ends...raise a boat load of money for a good cause and give every great fan on here a chance at something they normally wouldn't be able to try to get. I think that's how the band would want it.

How to be eligible for winning this poster:
Each entry into the drawing will be a $20 donation to Operation Yellow Ribbon of South Jersey. Each donation of $20 in will count as 1 entry – submit as many entries as you’d like. There is no limit to how many entries you can have. For example, donate $80 and you have 4 entries. Donate $100 and you have 5 entries. Donate $20 and you have 1 entry. Yada Yada Yada.

Entries can be from anywhere in the world. This will be shipped anywhere the winner lives!


The raffle will be open for entry until at least a minimum of 40 entries are submitted. I have specific wishes from the donator and I'm setting this thread to have to raise at least $800. If it doesn’t, as I mentioned, I reserve the right to close it out, refund everyone and just sell it directly at a set price. Again, I’m trying to do something to give lots of people a chance at this poster but at the same time, use it to generate a good amount of funds. If this way offends, then I apologize and please move on.

***Let's set the end date to accept entries as Monday Sept 30th, 11:59 PM EST (East Coast, USA time)

Winner and runner up prizes drawn that week!!***


PM me for Paypal payment directions. I will reply with exact, specific Paypal instructions. Please follow my instructions exactly as I may have to refund you your donations or to make it easy for me to administrate and not miss anyone for the raffle chance. Please please follow my directions with my reply to your PM.

One last way to help even if you can’t participate:
Please bump the heck out of this thread and keep it at the top of all the other LD threads. This would be most appreciated and an easy way for you to help.

Any questions? PM me. I miss something? PM me.

Thank you and love to you all. Even the one guy who will complain when he doesn’t win this poster.
-EV

    Totally agree. 37 is a fucked up number dude.

    Did you ever notice how it is everywhere? It is like THE random number people come up with.

    This cracks me up because 37 is my favorite number, I always pick it when asked to come up with a number...I also just like odd numbers, and 37 is as odd as it gets!
