Welcome,
I'm a great fan of Urban Legends,
For this contest I would like you to invent your very own.
If you aren't too sure what an Urban Legend is go here to take a look www.urbanlegends.com/legends/
I really don't mind the way in which you do this...it can be in story form or poetry...that's entirely up to you.
Please use spell check.
quite simply the three that I feel are the most inventive and original and show good writing skill will be the winners...good luck and thanks to all who decide to enter.
first place 450
second..... 200
third...... 150

I am going to have to go for this one, I think. I am so consumed with the contests I am running for folks with NO Trophys, I haven't had a chance to write anything for weeks. It is filling my bucket...so that is good. This sounds really fun....I will ponder on it for a day...see what urban legend I can come up with. good luck to ya.

Oooh this is a very good idea for a contest... I love Urban Legends for their quirkiness and creativity... but I hate people who are so dumb to insist they are real or true... anyways I hope I can think up something good!

Awesome idea for a contest. I can't believe that there aren't more entries for this. I will have to see if I can come up with an entry for this. I LOVE urban legends. Let me go and see what I can come up with.
