It isn’t quite Halloween yet, but The Bee and the bloggerette “tested” the Halloween candy for trick-or-treaters to be administered tomorrow evening. There’s nothing like a fistful of assorted Reese’s goodies and a dose of Godiva to put one in a giving mood.
With that in mind, we’re ready to announce the winners of the caption contest from earlier this month!
To jog your memory (and to remind us that the candy OD is fine because we jogged and then ran on the treadmill for a long time today), we invited readers to submit a funny caption for this A-Rod photo:

Participants had to use each of the following three phrases in the caption: strikeout, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Sarah Palin.
We asked The Bee and the other half of Team Revision (a.k.a. Pinky) for some help, and we picked not one but two winners. In no particular order, the two winning captions are *cue the drumroll and ignore the fact that it’s a cliche*
I strikeout and spongebob squarepants got a date with sarah palin . I though I’d never lose this this bet! I’M A-ROD! —Submitted by reader glen pollard
Sarah Palin vs. SpongeBob Squarepants – who won the debate? who will strike out? My money’s on, uh, my face at the moment. Weird. —Submitted by reader R.H.
All were clever entries and picking a winner was not easy . . . hence the cop out and the fact that we picked two. Congrats to glen pollard and R.H. . . . a copy of Jordan McAuley’s Secrets to Contacting Celebrities will be on its way!
