Mine That Bird “Be a Jockey for a Day” Contest!

News about the Mine That Bird “Be a Jockey for a Day” contest (which I would LOVE to win!):

“Best of all, for those of you who’ve always dreamed of being a jockey, the Mine That Bird team is giving you a chance to do just that. You can register to win the “Be a Jockey for a Day” contest at www.minethatbird.com/pr. The winner, and the winner’s companion, will be flown to Roswell, New Mexico.  They will receive VIP treatment, which includes spending an entire day with Mine That Bird, and then chow down at the Double Eagle Ranch with the Bird’s down home cowboy owners for a big western style “cowboy bar-b-q”. If you’re the winner you’ll find out in person what it’s like to live the life of a horse-racing rancher, train a winner, and ride him to victory.”
