Our Fall Sponsor Event: CMEpalooza Meets the Golden Bachelor

Last weekend, Derek couldn’t stop texting me.

HIM: “I am sooo excited about this week’s premiere of the Golden Bachelor. Aren’t you?”

ME: “No.”

HIM: “Come on, don’t be a sour puss. You can still find love in your 70s. I think it’s an incredibly romantic reality show premise. Don’t you?”

ME: “No.”

HIM: “Well OK, Mr. Negative Nancy. Just don’t expect me to get any work done this week. I am going to be spending all of my time on Golden Bachelor message forums scrutinizing and analyzing all of the contestants. There are so many interesting women.”

ME: “Believe me, I wasn’t expecting you to get any work done this week.”

HIM: “Hey, I’ve got an idea. The CMEpalooza Fall sponsor event is coming up this week. Can’t we at least tie in the Golden Bachelor to this year’s theme?”

ME: (Thinking that I don’t have any better idea) “OK, fine, you win.”

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how incredible ideas are born.

Welcome to CMEpalooza Meets the Golden Bachelor, our Fall sponsor event where we’ll give you the chance to win some money by doing nothing more than answering some questions about our glorious sponsors who all deserve a rose of their own.

Here is how this event works.

1. Click here to download the forms you will need. CMEpalooza Meets the Golden Bachelor is pretty simple. We have divided our sponsors into four categories – Gold Diggers, Silver Foxes, Bronzed Babes, and Special Stylists. In each category, you have to answer questions about one or more of our sponsors. Each question is very loosely themed on the Golden Bachelor. I asked Derek to help create some questions since he knows so much about the show, but you did read where he said he wasn’t doing any work this week, right? So you get what you get.
2. So where do you find the answers? Well, by visiting the websites of our CMEpalooza Fall sponsors (we have links for you on our Sponsor tab). I promise that you won’t have to hunt too much to find anything in case, like Derek, you are spending hours on the Golden Bachelor message forums this week.
3. You can use the answer sheet in the downloaded forms to complete your responses. You get up to three entries, but for each entry you must answer clues about different sponsors.
4. Within each entry, you must get every answer correct to qualify for our prize drawing. If I’m in a less ornery than usual mood, maybe I’ll let you get one wrong (note from Derek: that’s doubtful.). We’ll see.
5. Completed answer forms can be sent to me at scott@excaliburmeded.com. Make sure to include your name and professional affiliation in your email so that when we announce that you’ve won, everyone can be sufficiently jealous.

We’ll have five prize winners who will each receive a $100 Amazon gift card. Derek bought dozens of these already but apparently there are a few still left.

This event will be open until Friday, October 6, at 5 pm ET, so get cracking!
