Bigga Nose Contest

Saturday, May 24, 2008 at 1:00 PM - Herrin Civic Center

Just bring your "bigga" nose inside the Civic Center for a chance to win the First Prize of $100!

The time has come again to celebrate those lucky few of us who proudly carry our special endowments in the center of our faces, those who can sniff out both danger and a delicious ravioli from miles away. The time has come to measure ourselves not by our diligent humanitarian efforts but rather by how much we affect weather patterns when we sneeze. The time has come to take previously offensive ethnic stereotypes and dance around them in a light-hearted, self-deprecating parade of beauty. This is your moment, Mr. and / or Ms. Bigga Nose.

The Bigga Nose Contest will be held on Saturday, May 27th at 2:00 PM in the Herrin Civic Center. Contestants may enter the contest simply by showing up!

DISCLAIMER: Contestants who use steroids or 'performance enhancement' drugs to improve the size of their noses will be banned from the contest. Contestants who have had 'nose jobs' will be reviewed prior to the exhibition. Please be courteous and clean your nose before the contest.
