Caption contest

2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 25 -- THREE pictures this week! The Wombat caption contest will go on hiatus over the next couple of weeks while I compete with VM, so I thought I'd just run three pictures this week... Vegas-themed, of course! This is the first of three Vegas-themed pictures for this week's contest -- two more to come! How would you caption this picture? Comment below!

Please either quote this post or identify the picture ("1st pic" or "Rat Pack") so I know which picture you are captioning!



The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, just the glory of winning!

Not wanting to rain on their parade,Wombat decided to bow out this time.

And that marked the beginning of the end of the Rat Pack. No one took them seriously after that!

It was said that Wombat had a split personality, however, no one knew it was that severe.

Magician: "That was when Brad found out what they do to lawyers in Las Vegas... and that sawing a woman in half was not ALWAYS a trick."

Blue Man Group: "Hmm. I'm just not sure if they're ready for a Blue-ritone."

On another note, Wombat... I am so glad you came over to the blue side!


So this week we are the Blue Marsupial Welcoming Committee.

For reference, both of these images are from Halloween 2001 when I surprised the kids on my bus. They couldn't decide if I was part of Blue Man Group or a Smurf.

Never did get the stains out of that shirt.

On the afternoon run, I had four moms come up to my bus and ask if I had used pancake before putting on the makeup.

I had a blue tint for the next four days.

And now you've seen what I looked like with enough hair to mention.

Wow, love it. It is so much less hassle with photo-editing software, though -- no ruined clothing or lingering tint in the skin. Still, we should totally make the Blue Marsupial Welcoming Committee a thing.
