The L&T Nancy (our Agent of Random Chance) made her blind selection, and out of the hat popped truckeetom(nee tom)’s number.

Clearly, fate smiled broadly on the mysterious truckeetom — the winner of what the New York Times called the “most desirable canoe-themed hat ever given away on a fly fishing blog.”**

The Great Canoe Hat giveaway

Interestingly, truckeetom’s message also promised to cover the TU’s butt by covering the head of the TU’s dad:

If I am chosen for the vanity of the hat , I will personally donate one of my many favorite fishing ball caps to Mr Chandler Sr. Ha, take that!

It’s not as if we’re going to enforce his promise, but we will drop the parental units’ address in the outgoing box and see what happens.

Of course, none of the above will occur if truckeetom doesn’t contact us with his mailing address (use the contact form page).

We Loved the Contest So Much, We Bought the Company

Frankly, I enjoy enriching the lives of my readers with brilliant commentary on fly fishing AND with wildly valuable prizes. In fact, we’re doing the contest thing again fairly soon. Stay tuned…
