Foodfight Ticket Giveaway

OK Jax area peeps - Here's one way to help end hunger locally and have a great night out as well.

Up for grabs are two regular admission tickets to the 22nd Annual Jacksonville Foodfight - Thursday June 7 from 6:30 - 9 pm at the Touchdown Club East at Everbank Field. Face value is$60 each ($70 if you purchase at the door). 

All you need to do to enter is leave a comment telling us your favorite local restaurant dish.  No worries if you can't pick just one fave - tell us your top three to five!

 One randomly selected entry will get both tickets. One entry per person, but if you link to this post in a tweet with the hashtag #nourishthebeast you'll automatically get a second chance entry.

By the way - good luck figuring out what your favorite dishes are - I'm still thinking about mine. 

Contest ends Monday at 8 pm. The winner will be announced Tuesday. 

AND if you don't win the tix - there's still time to get to Foodfight - it's for a good cause - The event has raised more than $1 million to help fight hunger in Jacksonville over the last 20 years and hopes to raise at least $100,000 in 2012 - with all proceeds benefiting Second Harvest North Florida.
