Conditional giveaway

If the Buffalo Bills beat the Chiefs tonight I will giveaway two (2) pre-1945 collectible coins from a non-US country. This will end a wonderful sports weekend in the ajaan household: Yankees lost and the University of Buffalo won and snapped the longest, by far, losing streak in Div I football, they beat Ohio where I went to grad school.

When the Bills win, just post to enter.

Doesn't sound like a giveaway to me. Chiefs by 20.

wybrit · October 26, 2003 9:43AM

Make that 21.

mongoose · October 26, 2003 9:45AM

How about a point spread with them coins?

Sorry, the Chiefs are at home, I can't give them any points.

Well, in this case, GO Bills!!
Consider me in

Oh, then make it 24.

Hey wybrit, how did the Vikings do today?

MacCrimmon · October 26, 2003 10:07AM

Priest gets 20 carries for 145 yards! Chiefs by 16. Maybe the Bills should bring back O.J. I always admired his 'slashing' running style!

Hey wybrit, how did the Vikings do today?

They didn't do so well. That doesn't bother me in the least since I don't root for them. Exile, remember?

I do, however, root for the Denver Broncos.

I am a Lions fan, it's a sad life!

tbirde56 · October 26, 2003 11:04AM

Count me in if the Bills win.

<< <i>Count me in if the Bills win. >>

Halfway through the second quarter, fat chance of the Bills winning. They make me sick!

Aethelred · October 26, 2003 12:08PM

HA! HA!

wybrit · October 26, 2003 12:15PM

Let's see, it's 38-5 KC final. How 'bout them awesome Bills?

Don, maybe your next conditional giveaway should be based on when the Cubs win the World Series! Or perhaps when the (snicker!) Bills (chortle!) win the Super Bowl!!

4:02 to go......FIVE POINTS? HECK, they Bills couldn't beat the Marlins with those points.

The YANKEES? YEAH, they could beat them......especially if they munch on 'designer steroids'!!!

This thread deserves to be hijacked, in light of ajaan's non-giveaway.

I will mail out 5 halfpennies: 1914, 1922, 1924 and 1931 as ugly coins, plus a 1966 halfpenny in BU to the first person to correctly answer the following question:

In which season of Dr. Who did the good Doctor do battle with the dreaded Mandrills (Mandrels)? Name the story title.

They refused to let us give them the game.

Season 17; Nightmare of Eden.

wybrit · October 26, 2003 2:08PM

The mouse grabs the bait without snapping the traps! Well done, laddie!!

That episode contains my favorite line in all of Dr. Who: while a ship captain is watching a monitor showing the mandrels attacking and killing passengers on his ship, he just belly-laughs. When challenged as to how he could be looking on and laughing at this heinous thing, he says "they're only economy class - what's all the fuss about??"
