The Buckley’s Bad
Taste Tour (the "Contest") is sponsored by The Buckley's
Company (the "Sponsor").
How to Enter
From Thursday November 22, 2007 until 11:59pm Sunday April 27th 2008, the Sponsor will conduct product sampling of Buckley’s Mixture (“Buckley’s”) at various locations across Canada, including but not limited to ski hills, hockey arenas and shopping malls. Individuals, except in Quebec, will be given the opportunity to become participants in the Contest. Upon completing and signing a Medical Release, participants will be given a spoon full of Buckley's to swallow and their reactions will be captured on digital camera. The photos of participants’ reactions will be posted at www.badtastetour.ca (the “Contest Website”). The Sponsor will have the sole discretion to determine which photos may be posted.
Beginning on January 3, 2008, and ending at 11:59pm Friday June 27, 2008 (the “Public Voting Period”), visitors to the Contest Website will be able to view and vote on the posted reactions.
Eligibility
Contest open to residents of a Canadian province other than Quebec, who are 12 years of age or older and have parental consent unless they are the age of majority in their province of residence. Employees, directors and officers, representatives and agents of the Sponsor, its affiliate member-companies and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, and anyone domiciled with such persons, are ineligible.
To be declared the winner, the selected entrant must be eligible to work in Canada.
Selected Entrant
On or about June 28, 2008 (the “Selection Date”), the Sponsor will select one entrant from among all entries posted on the Contest Website. Members of the general public will be eligible to vote for their favourite entrant on-line at the Contest Website during the Public Voting Period in accordance with the process set forth therein (the “Public Voting Process”). Individuals may vote as often as they wish. The Sponsor will consult the results of the Public Voting Process but is not obliged to accept such results and reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine the selected entrant. Where the integrity of the Public Voting Process is compromised or not functioning, as determined by the Sponsor in its sole discretion, the Sponsor may cancel the Public Voting Process. The Sponsor will base its selection on the number of votes received and on any other factors that the Sponsor deems appropriate, such as conveyance of a suitable and memorable reaction and overall impression.
Prize
One (1) entrant will be selected to appear in a Buckley’s advertisement and receive a five-year supply of Buckley’s (the “Prize”). The approximate retail value of the five-year supply of Buckley’s is $500. The compensation for appearing in a Buckley’s advertisement will depend on the manner and content of the advertisement and corresponding industry standards.
Prize must be accepted as awarded, is not redeemable for cash, and no substitution of Prize is permitted. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value in the Sponsor’s sole discretion. Arrangements will be made for the Buckley’s to be delivered to the declared winner’s Canadian address at the Sponsor’s expense.
The odds of being selected to receive the Prize will depend on the number of entries posted and on votes received.
