Contest winner now enjoying Auto Erotica
For Caption Contest #15, we promised six special edition fridge magnets to the Meandering Michael who entered the best caption. After enlisting his young daughter as a pawn in a high stakes game to collect this alleged prize in the children’s playground at Rotary Peace Park, he later expressed surprise that the magnets actually existed. As Michael will hopefully confirm for all prospective contest entrants, the magnets really do exist–and they are SPECTACULAR. The lesson here: not everything you read on the Smells Like Yukon website is complete bullshit.
In addition to walking away with his tourism-slogon-spoofing bounty, Michael also had some Auto Erotica pressed into his hot little hand, which we can only assume he is now enjoying, alone, in his sleek Scandinavian station wagon.
If there are any lingering doubts as to the reality or quality of Smells Like Yukon’s caption contest prizes, consider the fact that Michael submitted his entry for Caption Conest #16 in record time, notwithstanding a short delay due to browser refreshing issues. Since we are out of fridge magnets, and Michael is already in possession of Auto Erotica, we can only assume that he’s very eager to win the beautifully compact umbrella that Mark, in an uncharacteristic and as-yet unexplained outburst of generosity, donated as a prize for the current contest.
We’ll also provide Auto Erotica to the winner, so if no one submits an entry to unseat the reigning champion, he’ll be doubling his pleasure… which is probably the last thing he needs.

Yes, indeed, the magnets DO exist. I now have more “Yukon - Friendlier than Iran” magnets than I know what to do with. So, in the sprit of friendly competition (because there must be SOMEONE out there willing to challenge my Caption Contest superiority), I will give one of the aforementioned magnets to each of the first four entrants into the next SLY caption contest, whether you win or not (assuming that the good folks at SLY let me know how to reach you)!
As for the Auto Erotica, I am saving that for a bit of quality time with my wife.

Your offer has already had an amazing effect, Michael; we just received an entry from a first time contestant. We suspect that the guy who donated the prizes is also going to submit several entries in an effort to win back some of his product. His sources tell him that the Yukon government will be hosting an Iraqi delegation later in the summer–and he’d like to present its members with a few magnets as welcome gifts.
