We have a lucky winner! Some little fella is going to be all ready for next hunting season with all kinds of new goodies and some cash to go with it to help buy license and gas money for Dad to haul him around![:D] Just kidding about the gas, if he charges you let me know and I will personaly kick his rear!

Well, after having to make a quick run to Allentown today I came home and took the list I had printed off last night, cut all the names out onto little squares and layed them out on the counter. I then setup my video camera and began to tape the drawing. Now the video turned out crappy and I wasnt about to cheat the original winner by drawing again, so the video in its condition stands and is posted for viewing if you wish to see it, the name on the winning ticket does not show up well at all. I tried and I apologoze for goofing up the video, guess I will have to go to Hollywood and learn how to film eh?

Anyhow, while the camera was rolling I gathered up all the name tags and placed them into my tumbler and turned it on. However not being satisfied that the tumbler did it's job I picked it up and shook it a couple times just to be sure. I then reached in and grabbed a tag, actualy a couple stuck so I unstuck them without looking and pulled out a name.

I bet y'all want to know who it is donchya[:D][:D][:D]













You really want to know?











You sure?











Ok, I'll tell you.

keep going down[:D]











A little more[:D]











Ok, the lucky fellas name is ,

Robert Balsavage III and was entered by his stepfather rdcinmn!

Next step is I need an email from rdcinmn with your mailing address so I may forward it to the donors, I will also e-mail you Allens(Aglore) address since you will need to send him a valid FFL to have the gun shipped to you.

Now all I would like to see is a picture of Robert on Christmas day in total surprise with the gun. Also there is no need to tell him who it is from unless you want to. Just tell him there is such a thing as Santa Clause. He may not be one person in a red suit but there is one[:D] As far as the other donors it is up to them if they want Robert to know. If you need help posting the pic, let me know and I will or somebody else can post it for you.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ROBERT B.

    7mm. You and all of the donors deserve a pay on the back for what it is you done, and are doing.

    I can't believe Robby won it, he's going to be so happy that all the Santa Clauses at GB have this higher level of kindness in there hearts! Now I'm going to have to unwrap the shipping paper off of the clay pigeon thrower and rewrap with gift paper. THANKYOU to EVERYONE for this! The generosity on this board is unmatched!!!!!!!!

    I sent emails to everyone (I think!), the ones who did not post their addy here I used the GB mail feature in hopes that it worked. If any of you did not get an email from me let me know and I will get you his address asap!
