Saddle Up, Partners, Because The Kidd’s Got Your Chance To See Jonah Hex

June 07, 2010 | by The Infamous Billy The Kidd |

I know, I know… with the total overhaul of the site and with everything so drastically different in its organization and design, everyone’s been wondering what surprises The Kidd might still have in store for you. Well, as you can see from our outrageous amount of content, which should keep you coming back all the time, we’ll also be adding some additional columns from a number of worthy outside contributors in the future, so you have that to look forward to. And we’ll have more contests… Contests… CONTESTS!!!

Woohoo!!!

Don’t think for a second that The Kidd won’t continue trying to give back to our readers and fans by offering up some awesomeness whenever it comes out way. Only now, it’ll be so much easier to find on the site, so, if you miss out from here on out, you have no one to blame but yourself.

So, to kick off the revamping of InfamousKidd.com, courtesy of Warner Bros., I’ve got your chance to saddle up and join The Kidd for an advance screening of JONAH HEX – Wednesday, June 16, at 7:30 p.m. at the Regal South Beach Cinemas in Miami.

The Kidd was tossing around all types of ideas, trying to come up with a good one to make you earn your passes, and it wasn’t easy at first. Should I do something DC Comics-related, since JONAH HEX is an adaptation of the series by the same name? Should I do something Josh Brolin or Megan Fox in nature? Then it hit me. Jonah Hex is a bounty hunter, so we should gear this giveaway around that. I originally considered asking who you consider to be the greatest bounty hunter of all-time, but that would’ve been too easy, and i would have gotten bored reading “Boba Fett” after about the 5th time. So we’re going to do something just a little bit different, and here it goes…

If you were a bounty hunter, what would your name be?

And, if you send me your actual name, don’t even think you’re going to rewarded for your laziness. A bounty hunter’s name should be cool and strike fear in the hearts of those who know you’re coming for them, like Dog or Bossk or… well, you get the idea.

So, send me in your bounty hunter identity, no more and no less than just the name, and, if I like it, you’re going to see JONAH HEX.

The top 3 entries will score themselves some extra goods, in the form of a JONAH HEX prize pack, and everyone else who finds their names on our winners list will be coming away with something on the side as well.

Worth playing for? Absolutely.

Send your entries to Contests@InfamousKidd.com with the following subject line exactly:

HE’S NO GOOD TO ME DEAD

If you don’t have that subject line exactly, then you don’t have an entry. So cut and paste it, if you must, and be sure you have it perfectly, in all CAPS, or your entry will never even reach us. There’s a specific reason for the subject line needing to be exact, so, if you can’t even follow our first simple instruction than you are done before you ever really got going.

Also, be sure to include your name, your shirt size, and the number of tickets you want. Failure to include any of this important information will result in failure by me to consider you for tickets. How’s that for some repercussions?

Wait… number of tickets I want? Kidd, what do you mean?

Well, The Kidd is going to let you decide how many people you want to take with you to see JONAH HEX. You are eligible for up to two passes, meaning you can take up to three other people with you. So, if it’s just going to be you and a date, only ask for one. If you have a couple of friends you want to bring out with you, then go right ahead and ask for two. I will try to accommodate your requests as best as I can. However, ask only for what you absolutely need. If you’re only bringing one guest, then you only need one pass. We want to get as many of our fans into the theatre as possible, so don’t be a jerk and waste tickets. Are we clear…? Good.

The deadline for this contest is Friday, June 11, at 1:00 pm EST. Winners will be posted on the site later that afternoon. One entry per person per e-mail per name. Therefore, multiple or duplicate entries from duplicate or similar names will be disqualified, as we are able to see the names attached to the accounts you are sending your entries from. And, if you forget a piece of information and try to send it in later, that counts as a multiple, so get it right the first time. After all, I’m not writing these instructions up for my health.

Also, if you cannot attend this screening, do not enter. If you can’t get a babysitter, don’t enter. If you can’t get out of work early enough, don’t enter. If you have class, homework, chores, prior engagements, or previous commitments that would prevent you from attending this screening, do not enter… unless, of course, you’re comfortable with your name sitting on the Watch List, one step away from being ineligible to enter and win any further screening passes. Therefore, enter at your own risk.

All decisions and rulings are those of The Kidd’s, and my word is final.

Good luck.
