Congratulations to KnuckleBaller, of Chicago, who won passes to see a screening of Man of Steel in last week’s contest.
As many people have pointed out, Superman entered the country illegally and has apparently never gotten his green card.
But you won’t catch me dissing America’s number-one superhero icon. That’s like chewing on a big old chunk of kryptonite.
According to one survey, the Superman logo is the second most recognized symbol in the world, right after the Christian cross.
I have my doubts about the accuracy of that survey, particularly because other symbols (e.g., “$”) are pretty popular. But I think we can all agree that Superman is, at the very least, exceedingly well known.
So I’m happy to offer you the chance to win passes to a screening of Man of Steel, the latest big-screen version of the Superman story, in one of the following cities:
Chicago
Dallas
Houston
El Paso
Los Angeles
Miami
New York
Phoenix
San Diego
San Francisco
All you have to do is comment on one of my posts (including this one) about anything you please. Just make sure to tell me what city you plan to see the movie in, so I can allocate the passes.
If you win, I’ll email you the tickets. By the way, I won’t make your contact info public, so don’t worry about that.
I’ll announce the contest winners in the next week or so.
In the meantime, just try to keep that Superman theme song from playing in your head.
