It's Packers vs. Bears Week! How 'bout a contest to make things interesting???

Packers fans (and those who wish they were)...we're pleased to announce our first-ever Packers House Flag Total Points Giveaway Contest! Otherwise known as the PHFTPGC for brevity. That rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? We thought so, too.

The flag is provided to us -- and, ultimately, one of you lucky readers! -- courtesy of CollinsFlags.com It's a great Packers flag as you can see from the image above. Any true Packers fan would love to have this streaming in front of their home, garage, party tent, RV...whatever.

Da Rules
A Total Points Giveaway Contest is exactly what the title implies: one based upon total points scored. A-duh. In this case, the total points scored between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears in the 2015 NFL season opener in Chicago on Sunday, September 13.

Just email your total points guess for this game to packerfansunited@yahoo.com using the subject line "CONTEST" with what you think the TOTAL POINTS SCORED (the combined score for both teams!) will be for this game. Whoever comes closest to the actual final total score without going over...WINS!* Your email address will not be used for any other purpose than for contacting the winner.

You have until kick-off (Sunday, September 13, 2015, 12 p.m. CT...Note: Central Time) to make your guesses. There are no extra points for Tweeting/blogging about this giveaway but we’d love it if you helped spread the word. As the Lama told Carl Spackler as he was about to stiff him, "...but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So you got that goin' for you, which is nice.

*In the event of ties, the tie-breaker will go to the first person to guess per the rules (according to email time-stamp), so make your guesses early! Only one entry per person, please. Continental U.S. shipping addresses only, sorry.

Once the dust settles (it may take a while depending upon the number of entries...and we have lives, too), we'll be in contact with the winner for shipping information. CollinsFlag.com is responsible for providing and shipping the flag to the winner.

So...what are you waiting for? Put on your prognostication hat and figure out how many points the Packers are going to roll up on Da Bearz in Chicago along with the few Cutler and crew might scratch out. What could be easier?

Go Pack Go!!!
