Happy Birthday Nuts About Southwest!

Today we are excited to celebrate 5 years of LUV in the Blogosphere with a fun trivia contest! Our resident Blog Boy, Brian Lusk, will post a trivia question each hour beginning at 10:00 a.m. CST and ending at 2:00 p.m. on the Nuts blog.  The first person to answer the hour’s question correctly within the comments section of the blog will win a roundtrip ticket on Southwest (time will be determined by the timestamp of your comment)!  Each person that provides the correct answer within the hour for that hour’s specific question will also be entered into a drawing to win an official Southwest bike! So many ways to win! 

The questions will be challenging, exhilarating, and in some cases…buried deep within the five year history on the blog! Comments will not be moderated until each trivia hour is up!  Winners will be notified via email so it is crucial that you register on the blog and provide us an e-mail address!

Please read the full contest rules below...you have about an hour to mentally prepare yourself for this awesome online scavenger hunt!
