The Station will conduct “The Bert Show’s Mother’s Day Makegood” Contest (the “Contest”) substantially as described in these
rules, and by participating, each participant agrees as follows:
No purchase is necessary. Void where prohibited. All federal, state, and local regulations apply.
2. Contest is open only to legal U.S. residents who are age 18 or older residing in the Atlanta, GA metro area (collectively,
the “Contest Territory”) with a valid Social Security number at the time of entry. Employees, agents, representatives, or
affiliates of the Station, Cumulus Media Partners LLC, Cumulus Broadcasting LLC, Cumulus Media Inc. and their respective
affiliates, other radio stations and media companies in or serving the Contest Territory, and their immediate family members
and household members are not eligible to participate or win. The term “immediate family members” includes spouses,
parents, siblings, grandparents, children, grandchildren and cohabiting significant others.
3. An individual may win an on-going contest only once per six-month period unless otherwise specifically stated. An
individual may win other seasonal or one-time contests only once for the duration of the contest. An individual who has won
a prize valued at $600 or more during the past calendar year from the Station is ineligible to win
4. The contest will be held Monday, May 14th, 2012 at approximately 6:00am EST until Wednesday, May 16 th, 2012 at
approximately 5:00am EST (the “Contest Period”). The Station reserves the right to extend the contest past the end date/time
or terminate the contest at an earlier date/time.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE AND WIN: There are two ways to participate in this contest:
a. On Monday, May 14th, listen to the Bert Show for the cue to call 1-855-BERT-SHOW to enter the contest.
Listeners must tell the on-air personalities about the Mother’s Day gift that they received that they did not like. All
contestants that speak to the Bert Show on the air will be qualified for the grand prize. Time Delay Between Over-
the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-
the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to call later
than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener winning
this Contest may be diminished.
b. Visit the Bert Show’s Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/TheBertShow and click the link to fill out the
entry for the Mother’s Day Makegood contest. Entrants must also write a short story about the Mother’s Day gift
that they received and did not like. One entry per person, per household, per email address. Submissions will be
qualified for the grand prize.
6. Contest Winners: During the Contest Period, the Bert Show will review each phone call and website submission and
determine, in its sole and exclusive discretion, the caller(s) who will be qualified to receive the Contest Prize as described
below in Section 7. Qualifiers will be chosen based on numerous factors including, but not limited to, the compelling nature
of the entrant’s story. The Station reserves the right to award as many Contest Prizes as it sees fit in its sole and exclusive
discretion. All decisions of the Station are final. If it is determined that the candidate is not eligible to receive the prize, in
the Station’s sole judgment and discretion, another candidate will be selected for eligibility consultation and this process will
continue on until such time as an eligible candidate is found. In the unlikely event that no candidates are found to meet the
specifications, then the prize will go un-awarded. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by and at the Station’s
sole discretion.
7. Contest Prizes: One (1) grand prize will be awarded. The grand prize package consists of the following: A $2,500 gift
