Eat Your Doritos!

Travis entered a contest hosted by Doritos chips. The contest consisted of him cracking codes and word puzzles, stuff like that... Well, there were several different puzzles released and the quicker you figured out the puzzle, the better the rank you received. After the last puzzle was released at the end of June, Travis found out that he was a semi-finalist in the contest. Then, they sent him information to fill out and he had to get a physical and a copy of his driving record sent to them. Alas, while Travis was in Wales, (on his birthday) he found out that he was a finalist, and there are only three finalists for the final round! I should mention that the grand prize is $100,000!!! Whoa!! Are you serious?? It's for real, folks, I just spoke with the game's producer yesterday and Travis will fly to Las Vegas where they will shoot the final stage of the contest and he will compete in physical and mental challenges for the ultimate grand prize!!! He has a 33% chance of winning $100K!!! That is incredible!! Thank you, Jesus, for this great opportunity! Travis will be in Vegas through Friday of next week, when they are supposed to air the final challenge (not sure if it will be on TV or online). You can go to www.doritos.com to check out more info on the contest. The game is called The Quest. Our lives could significantly change next week! If we won, it would be, "hello down payment on a house! goodbye student loans!! and hello new furniture!" Say a prayer for Travis... He competes next Tuesday-Friday. I'll keep you updated on more info.... :)
