Ever taken a look at a gorgeous woman and noticed the weird, awkward, perfectly average-looking fella she’s shacking up with? Of course you have. An audible “WTF?!?!” probably followed soon after, and it perplexed you for the rest of the day, as you tried to wrap your head around the fact that THAT chick was with THAT guy. Well, there’s your basis for “She’s Out of My League,” the new comedy from Paramount, starring Jay Baruchel (“Knocked Up” and “Tropic Thunder”) as the lucky bastard of a guy and Alice Eve as the girl who we’d all think is far out of his league.

And thanks to the generous people over at Paramount, who are clearly not out of The Kidd’s league, we’ve got passes to the advance screening of “She’s Out of My League” in Miami at the AMC Aventura 24 on Wednesday, March 10, at 7:30. And guess who’s going to be on the receiving end of those tickets? Oh, you’re so smart… or at least you are now. Let’s see how many of you stay that way once the instructions get handed down.

Interested in attending the show? That’s good, because we want you there. But, as usual, it’s not going to be as easy as just asking for passes, no matter how many of you insist on thinking that’s how it’s done here at InfamousKidd.com.

So what does The Kidd have in mind this time around? Hmmm… how about another good old-fashioned picture contest? Oh, yeah.

With the movie’s premise in mind, The Kidd wants to see who is out of your league. I don’t care how hot you think you are… there’s got to be somebody who, as much as it pains you to say it, is unattainable to you, no matter how good your game may be. We want to see who you wouldn’t even bother making an attempt on, because of the high risk of failure and rejection in spectacular crash-and-burn style.

Here’s what The Kidd wants (and pay close attention to ALL the details)…

I want a picture of you making a nice kissy face to a picture of someone you feel is absolutely and totally out of your league. It could be a computer print-out. It could be a magazine cover. It could be something you clipped out of your dad’s collection of TV Guides. You figure it out. However, we need to clearly be able to see who it is, so we can say to ourselves, “Yep, clearly out of their league,” and hook you up with some passes. In addition, you need to be displaying a sign for us, so we know that this picture was taken for us for this contest. We like to feel special. So, if it’s you and a guy, your sign should read “He’s Out Of My League,” and, if it’s you and a girl, we expect to see “She’s Out Of My League.” Pretty simple, huh?

Send your entries to Contests@InfamousKidd.com with this exact subject line:

TOTALLY OUT OF MY LEAGUE!!!

First things first, if your subject line isn’t exactly that, meaning all in CAPS with three (3) exclamation points at the end (!!!), then you’re already out. There’s a reason why it needs to be exact, and, if you can’t follow the first simple instruction, then the only creatures who will be viewing your photo will be the tiny gnomes that live in my trash bin.

Next, include your name, and make sure it’s located in the body of your e-mail where we can easily locate it. If it’s not there, we’re not doing any extra work to find out who you are. After all, this is YOUR entry, and, if we don’t know who you are, then we can’t very well give you anything. So don’t forget that vital piece of information, or else… you guessed it… trash gnomes.

And you might want to put in a little effort here, because you never know when The Kidd will be so moved and impressed that I feel compelled to pick the best ones and award some prize packs. Could it happen here? It could… or it couldn’t. Who knows?! Well, I do… but I’m not going to tell you. That would ruin any surprises that may or may not go down. But I would advise putting forth something good.

The deadline for this contest is Monday, March 8, at 12:00 noon EST. Winners will be posted up later in the day on Monday as well. 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. We’re not stupid, and don’t like to be treated as so, so any attempts to do so will be met with swift reaction.

We have also been having issues with no-shows and unclaimed passes, so please… 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.

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

I look forward to seeing what some of you come up with for this one. I’m always amazed by the creative individuals out there and what they send me, and this is no exception. I’m expecting some hilarity to ensue, both from your pictures and “She’s Out of My League,” so, if you want in on the movie, let me take a good look at who is out of your league.
