Viva La Ruckus

Donations and TShirts

I’m going to get this out of the way up front so we can move on quickly. Yes – the economy is for shit right now. I get it. The staff at CNBC doesn’t, but that’s beside the point. Just because it’s the end of days doesn’t mean you can’t scrape together a few bucks to gamble away.

The Roc Boys are NOT in the building this year so unfortunately for you brackets are not on the house. For a $10 donation in American funds, you will receive one (1) bracket entry and one (1) Viva La Ruckus t-shirt. If you pick Dook University to win the tournament, you own $11. For any Ruckus virgins out there, that extra dollar is known as the Dook tax and it’s never, ever, ever going away. Ever. You’re more than welcome to argue the tax if you like, but know before you start that your feelings on this topic are like a cow’s opinion. It just doesn’t matter. It’s a moo point.

Shirt designs have not been finalized as we went to press but you can trust that they’re going to be about 23 different kinds of awesome, thanks to the lovely & talented Stacee G at Promotions Pronto LLC.

That being said – and at the risk of angering some of my out-of-state constituents – if you do not live in the immediate St. Louis metro area, you need to donate an additional $5 so I can ship your 23-different-kinds-of-awesome t-shirt to you. Yeah. I know. It sucks. I don’t know what else to tell you. I had to empty my girls college funds last year to ship t-shirts so now they’re looking for scholarships to refrigerator college.

You are welcome to and encouraged to enter more than one bracket if you’d like, but know before you enter them that each bracket you submit is subject to a $10 donation. If you enter three brackets, you donate $30. Regardless of how many brackets you submit, you only get one t-shirt.

Please submit your donations to me via cash (if you work in my office or plan on seeing me in the next 3-5 days) or PayPal to jdxruckus@yahoo.com (if you live outside the St. Louis metro area or are too lazy to drive here and deliver your donation in person). All donations are due to me no later than Friday, March 20th, 2009. I’m not a bounty hunter so please don’t make me track you over hill and under dale because I don’t have time for that shit. Just take care of the councilor and everything will move like shit through a goose.
