This contest is the only thing taking the edge off getting older. Sure, I’m now closer to 30 than I am to 20… but at least I’m closer to being able to enter this contest. ;D Wish it didn’t come with the male-pattern-baldness though. Them receeding hairline feels… _puts on hat_ ---

I’ll set up a drop-box for you and host in on my YouTube. BOOYA, ENTERED IN THE RANDOM DRAWS! Old folks gotta look out for one another… OK, so there will be a people’s champion! Going to see if I can figure out how to randomly reward people who take the time to vote, too… only technology and convoluted processes is holding me back at this point. Gambit: hardly!! HAHA! Sempai. Thanks for the idear. :wink: ---

Here we go with the first of several prize pack announcements! These are two packages which will be awarded via a random draw to a lucky entrant in each division! At the time of awarding, we will first randomly determine which pack goes to which division, and then we will randomly select an individual who has entered the contest. A not insignificant number of the YYE “Elders” are big fixie aficionados, and these packs will deliver the goods to those people, or might provide the impetus to get new “Elders” on board the fixed-axle train. These packs come courtesy of: - the fabulous Hildy Bros. ([Hildy Brothers – YoYoExpert](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/manufacturer/86/Hildy%20Brothers)) who contributed a pair of Curriers (the striped ones) and an Emmett (the small black one). I have a Currier of my own, so you’re in for a treat. Thanks, Hildy Bros! - Judge Ed Haponik (notice the capital J) who has sent along a “77 Rules for Yo-Yo Players” set including the illustrated booklet and a custom ProFly. Thanks for judging the contest and sending along this welcome surprise as well, Ed! - forum member yooldman, who contributed the Hildy/Higby Curriers and the ProFlys. He also organized the packs, brought Hildy Bros. into the fold, and will be sending out the prizes! yooldman was the “raison d’etre” for this contest in the first place, and it’s humbling to see him continue to be such a strong supporter! Thanks, yooldman! Pack 1: Hildy/Higby Currier, Laminated Currier, Hildy Bros Emmett, Duncan ProFly, signed Ed Haponik collectible trading card ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/2/2/9223c62011116fbf567886159154ba7c1e0c3c84.jpeg) Pack 2: “77 Rules for Yo-Yo Players” set (booklet and one-of-a-kind ProFly), signed Ed Haponik collectible trading card, striped Hildy Bros.
