    Since the same thing happened this year, I am just going to copy my post from last year! 😮

    Okay… Freezing Saddles has started and due to the logistics of getting the teams set up, I totally failed on the details of my pointless prizes. Whoops.

    So, here is how you go about joining in on the Sock Game pointless prize competition:

    Step 1: Wear awesomely cool socks (on your feet) while riding your bike (outside) so that the world can see that you have great sock game.
    Step 2: Take a photo of you wearing your awesome socks (on your feet) with your bike in the picture (outside).
    Step 3: Post that photo in one of two places:
    a) On Instagram. Please use the following hashtag (if it is not hashtagged properly, it will not be judged since I am lazy and will only look at photos using the hashtag search function): #BAFS2018SockGame
    b) Here on this thread if you are a non-instagraming participant.

    See, how simple is that?!

    Now… How do you actually WIN?

    I will silently judge you. Well, more specifically, I will silently judge your sock game. I will pick my top ten favourites and then post them for the forum to pick their favourite. The owner of those socks, or at least the person who was wearing the socks for that particular photo, will win another amazingly fun pair of socks*.

    *The winner will need to kindly let me know their sock size and if they have aversion to strongly worded sayings on socks… 😎

    UPDATE:
    Due to the closing happy hour being so close to the end of the competition, I am going to cut this competition a bit short. This ensure that I will have time to allow for a couple of days of voting and to order appropriately sized socks for the winner.

    So, without further ado, the final date for sock game submissions will be March 11, 2018.

    Frozen Han and Boba Fett seemed like the right way to kick things off on a 14 degree day.

    So…are we talking about legit “sock game” or just “who can wear the wackiest socks?!” because those are two very different things.

    Just like in Cards Against Humanity, you are playing to the one who silently judges you. But “Legit Sock Game” and “Wackiest Socks” are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

    I think this should get special consideration, given it’s January 12 and all:

    I sleazed to Fro yo tonight, so I had to wear my fro yo socks. Pardon my lack of footwear, but I thought it key to see the nice sock cone waffle pattern.82051b9f14086ec88d1a42d3d1fc7737.jpg

    Sure, everyone has the socks, but do they have the wheels that match?

    I’ve been waiting for appropriate socks to bust out my entry to this pointless prize. I present: Spacedog!

    Congratulations on your wedding and on knowing what appropriate footwear is for such a dignified occasion.

    Since the bride vetoed the tuxedo bike jersey, cool socks was the next best thing.
