Win the ultimate Turbo BBQ
Do
you have Australia's most embarrassing Dad?
Purchase a specially marked copy of
Impractical Jokes by Charlie Pickering, keep your receipt & sticker - and enter the competition here before 31 October 2010 for your chance to win the ultimate Turbo BBQ, including a fridge filled with beer!
The book
It was 1986 when Charlie’s dad Ronald was pushed into a pool at a backyard barbie by his best friend Richard Opie. His revenge? An all out water pistol ambush in a five-star restaurant. It should have ended there... What followed was ten years of relentless payback and counter-payback, involving three toilets, a deceased poodle, a parking meter and the State Emergency Service. When maturity is the first casualty of war, things tend to escalate.
The prize
One grand prize winner will receive the Turbo Elite 5 Island BBQ with Fridge and Sink, filled with beer, plus a handsome set of BBQ utensils, worth over $7000!
Three runners up will receive a set of BBQ utensils and a case of beer.
The competition
The prizes will be awarded to the entrants who best answer the question "Tell us why you have Australia’s most embarrassing Dad?"
How can I possibly confine myself to only 25 words?
A fair question! Can we really expect to convey the true glory of our embarrassing fathers in a mere 25 words? After all, Charlie needed an entire book.
