Cartoon Caption Contests
Gorillas in Space Cartoon Caption Contest
These two Gorillas planned ahead.
It’s Monday, time for a brand new Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest. (Cartoon after jump.) Please type a clever caption (you are allowed two submissions) and place it in the comment section, along with a valid email address, and you could win a $10 cash prize. I will accept entries until midnight, Friday, Feb. 27th, 2009. I’ll select five finalists over the weekend, which will be voted on starting noon Monday, March 3rd, and ending at midnight on Friday, March 7th, 2009.
There will be a new Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest starting at noon, EVERY MONDAY! Along with the new cartoon that needs a caption, you will be asked to vote on the finalists from the week before. (The winning caption will be announced for the contest that was voted on during the last week as well.)
Now, about this cartoon. It is my firm belief that the average animal is smarter the average human. Just look at how we, as a species, behave – the senseless conflict brought on by irrational fears, the all-consuming greed, Scientology! I wouldn’t be surprised if the animals one day board the space ships they’ve been working on under the cover of night in the world’s zoos to find another planet that is free of humans – and neither should you.
Here’s your chance to VOTE for your favorite caption for last week’s Texting Fetus Caption Contest. Just click the links below and leave your vote in the comment sections for each post. The polls will be open all week – until midnight, Friday, Feb. 27th. Thanks!
CLICK HERE TO VOTE for last week’s winning caption in the Texting Fetus caption contest.
And, don’t forget to scroll down and see the winner of the Sandbox Cartoon Caption Contest.
The winning caption from Melinda Koly.
I post brand new cartoons, with my very own captions, every Wednesday at noon, and I have a new piece of fantastic commentary for you to read every Friday at noon.
While you’re here, sign up for my feed so you can get some of the best in original political cartoons and commentary.
And, check out more cartoons and the winners of the caption contest in the Splendid Marbles Cartoon Gallery.
Please note: I will send out an email on Mondays to remind you about the contest. I will NOT pester you at any other time during the week, and I will NOT share your email with another living soul – or organization run by the living. AND, I will take you off of the list as soon as you request to be removed – just send a reply email with “UNSUBSCRIBE” in the subject line. Thank you, and have fun with this week’s cartoon. (Please be advised: I reserve the right to remove comments that contain foul language.)
