Pillsbury actually shut down the contest for several days to try and figure out why the tuna wreath was getting so many votes. When they reopened the voting, most of our votes had been taken away but in the end we still had enough time to get the win....it was great!

The whole thread is really worth a read.

I remember reading a CP Jihad where another person registered that was in the competition and got mad at people for voting for the CP member and said it was cheating..does that ring a bell for anyone else?

- Edit, whoops didnt read the above post, I believe that was what I was thinking about.

along with the one I posted above. I think it's him...
Awesome!

Glad to see him win.

The video currently has 62 likes. Not sure how many it had when he was announced as the winner though.

You can stop liking the video. I did win.

What an awesome experience. 2 pairs of jeans, 2 short sleeve shirts, 2 dress shirts, a vest, a tie, a pair of shorts, a pair of dress pants, and a fedora (yes, a fedora) later, and now I can retire a bunch of my clothes.

Thanks to CP Nation for the help. This one wasn't so much about how many votes as much as the use of social media, as well as the need.

I highly recommend checking out Espy next time you need clothes. Awesome place, awesome staff. Had a blast yesterday, and I couldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks again!

Congrats Rob!

Too bad Espy didn't have any Preds jerseys
