Cartoon Caption Contests
“Hot Seat” Cartoon Caption Contest
Is this just an office popularity contest, or something more sinister? (it's up to you!)
This is the most excellent Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest. (The contest your prize-winning unicorn, the one who only drinks Boodles gin, warned you about.)
- Type a clever caption and place it in the comments section, along with a valid email address, and you could win a signed copy of the cartoon, with your caption and name attached (and you’ll be added to the Splendid Marbles gallery of caption contest winners.) (Check out all the winners of the caption contest.)
- You are allowed FIVE submissions.
- Because it’s Labor Day weekend, I will accept entries until midnight, Monday, September 6th, 2010.
- I’ll select five finalists, which will be voted on starting right around noon Tuesday, September 7th, 2010. (That’s when a new contest starts as well!)
- That’s it!

Loading ...We’ve got TWO winners to hail, bow and sacrifice our third born to this week:
NUMBER 1:
Congratulations, Kevin M.! (Did you ever meet my mother?)
NUMBER 2:
Nicley done, Jordan Elliker!
CUSTOMIZED T-SHIRTS, COFFEE MUGS & LAW ENFORCEMENT GRADE STUN GUNS* AVAILABLE! If you’ve won the contest, have been a finalist, OR, if you’ve submitted at least 20 captions over the past 6 months, I can create a customized shirt for you. (If you have a preference for another product, say a coffee mug, or a hat, or maybe you fancy bazookas or other types of field artillery, I can have CafePress plaster my cartoons with your logos on them as well – except maybe the weapons, I have to check on that.) Just send the cartoon by contest name, your caption and full name to: splendidmarbles at gmail dot com. (*Totally kidding about the stun guns.) And, you can order the one featured below right away!
Here’s a shot of the shirt featuring one of my swell contest cartoons:
No country club will deny you entry now!
CLICK HERE if you would like one of your very own (there are two more styles available and some designs I came up with a little while back, just click “Back to Shop” on the link.) By the way, the sign on the yard says: Splendid Marbles / inquire within.
And, check out more cartoons and the winners of the caption contest in the Splendid Marbles Cartoon Gallery.

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.)
