Thanks to everyone who voted for our Twitter account in the Georgia Straight's awards this year. I've been managing it since 2009 and am so honoured to have came in 2nd place after my friend this year!
"Have you ever caught a fish?" is what I started off a tweet with today, ending it with the fact that I was giving away free passes to the 4D film, The Great Salmon Run, screening at the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Aquarium (which I wrote about ) to people who tweeted me photos of fish that they had caught. I do random stuff like this on Twitter sometimes and sometimes the best idea in my brain translates to the worst idea for a contest - that nobody enters - but I got 7 submissions in an hour to this one and thought I would share here!
This is , one of the lucky winners of my draw for 2 tickets, holding a 15 pound Coho salmon that fed 20 people:
And here is holding a trout he caught just yesterday on an unnamed river (fishermen keep their spots secret!):
And the other 5 entries who didn't win in the random draw facilitated through Random.org are below. One being from a vegetarian who was upset that they couldn't enter because they didn't catch/eat fish. I told them if they sent me a photo of a vegetable that they picked with their own hands I would bend the rules for them, and they sent in a photo of a pomegranate they picked recently in Spain! That rules.
