<p><a href="http://www.cosi.org/home/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-700" title="logo" src="http://the270.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/logo.gif" alt="" width="161" height="99" /></a>I am happy to announce the first, and hopefully not the last, contest on the270.</p>
<p>The prize will be a set of four tickets to <a href="http://www.cosi.org/home/">COSI</a>. Actually, I&#8217;ll be giving away two sets of these, so that two lucky readers will win them.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t been to COSI lately, do yourself a favor and go. I admit that before I had kids, I haven&#8217;t been to COSI since High School. Too bad for me, becuase I would have learned a lot of neat sciense stuff. </p>
<p>Ok, so here are the rules to enter this giveaway.</p>
<ol>
<li>All entries must be recieved by 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on Monday, December 15.</li>
<li>If you don&#8217;t already have one, open up a <a href="http://www.twitter.com/">twitter</a> account. It&#8217;s free.</li>
<li>Follow me on twitter, I&#8217;m <a href="http://www.twitter.com/wyliemac">@wyliemac</a> there. I will notify the winners via direct message (&#8220;DM&#8221;) on twitter, and if you are not following me, then I can&#8217;t notify you.</li>
<li>You must link to this post in a tweet and include the following tag in the tweet &#8211; #the270COSI. Make sure there are NO spaces in the tag, otherwise I won&#8217;t find it via a twitter search.</li>
</ol>
<div>Here&#8217;s a sample tweet that you could use:</div>
<blockquote>
<div>I just entered a chance to win 4 COSI tickets from the270.com (and @COSICols) &#8211; http://snipurl.com/7mv86 &#8211; #the270COSI</div>
</blockquote>
<div>That&#8217;s it. I will print out all of the tweets, cut them out and draw two entries out of a hat.</div>
<div>You don&#8217;t have to be from Columbus to enter, but COSI is in Columbus, Ohio. There is no cash equivalent, so don&#8217;t ask me for cash in lieu of the prize. <img src='http://the270.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </div>
<div>Good luck, and thanks for entering. </div>
<div>UPDATE: You may enter more than once. Just make sure to link back to this post and place the hashtag there so I can find it. </div>
<div>UPDATE 2: Shame on me for not including <a href="http://twitter.com/COSICols">COSI&#8217;s twitter account</a> on the sample tweet. Now rectified.</div>
