  1. SUBMISSION SPECIFICATIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND LICENSE

Each Submission must be the original work of the Contestant(s) and must not infringe upon the copyrights, trademarks, rights of privacy, publicity or other intellectual property or other rights of any person or entity.  If the Submission contains any material or elements that are not owned by the Contestant(s) and/or which are subject to the rights of third parties, the Contestant is responsible for obtaining, prior to submission of the Submission to Sponsor, any and all releases and consents necessary to permit the use and exhibition of the Submission by Sponsor in the manner set forth in these Official Rules. Contestants may not use video, images or music from outside sources. Sponsor reserves the right to require proof of these permissions in a form acceptable to Sponsor from any Contestant at any time.

Submissions must comply with the following guidelines to be eligible:

Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any Submission for any reason, in its sole and absolute discretion.

In the event of a dispute about the identity of a Contestant, entries will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the account the entry is submitted from at the time of entry. The “authorized account holder” is the person who is assigned to the account by the online service provider.  The potential Grand Prize Winner may be required to provide Sponsor with proof that the potential winner is the authorized account holder of the email address associated with the winning entry. A “Joint Entry” may be submitted by two Contestants (but not more than two) who appear in the Submission together and would be deemed the Grand Prize Winner jointly (as described below).  In such event, the Contestant who is not the “authorized account holder” may be required to demonstrate their identity.

As a condition of entry, each Contestant agrees to indemnify and hold the Released Parties (as defined below) harmless from and against any and all claims or liability to a third party that arise out of the content of any Submission submitted in this Contest, or Contestant’s failure to comply with these Submission Requirements or the Official Rules.

Each Contestant hereby grants to Sponsor a perpetual, royalty-free, assignable, irrevocable, unrestricted, license to use, utilize, replicate, alter, adapt, modify, publish, broadcast, translate, produce derivative works from, distribute, present, display, sublicense and exercise all copyright and other intellectual property and other rights with respect to each Submission worldwide and/or to include, in part or in whole, any Submission in other works in any media now known or later created, anywhere and forever, without further review, notice, approval, consideration or compensation, including, without limitation, on WWE’s broadcasts and on Sponsor’s and Slim Jim brand’s social media channels. Except where legally prohibited, submission of a Submission into this Contest constitutes Contestant’s irrevocable permission for Sponsor to use the entrant’s name, image, likeness and social media handle, in whole or in part, in print, electronic media, broadcast media, or any other media or manner, whether now known or later created, in perpetuity, in any way Sponsor deems appropriate in connection with promoting the Contest and Sponsor’s mission or any other purposes without further review, notice, approval, consideration or compensation.

  1. WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION

Submissions will be judged by a panel of qualified judges selected by Sponsor (the “Judging Panel”).  Each Submission will receive a score based on the following criteria: (1) presentation (50%); (2) originality (25%); and (3) message of showing how taking a bite of a Slim Jim meat stick to help defeat boredom (25%). The Contestant (or with respect to a Joint Entry, Contestants) submitting the top scoring Submission, as determined by the Judging Panel, will receive the Grand Prize, subject to confirmation.  In the event of a tie, the tie will be broken by the Judging Panel who shall select the Submission that best meets criteria #2.  Sponsor reserves the right to not award any Prize, in its sole discretion, if it does not receive a sufficient number of eligible and qualified Submissions. The Judging Panel’s and Sponsor’s decisions are final and binding on all matters.

Potential Winner (or with respect to a Joint Entry, Winners) will be notified through the applicable social media platform from which the Submission was deemed a potential winner approximately twenty-four (24) hours after being selected, and instructed to contact Sponsor by email within twenty-four (24) hours.  Before a Potential Winner (or with respect to a Joint Entry, Potential Winners) will be deemed a Grand Prize Winner, he/she/they may be required to sign and return a prize verification form and a publicity release (except where prohibited) and any other legal documents that Sponsor may require, including IRS Form W-9 (collectively, “Prize Verification Forms”), within two (2) days from the date Sponsor sends the Prize Verification Forms to the Potential Winner(s), or the Potential Winner(s) will be subject to disqualification. If a selected Grand Prize Winner (or with respect to a Joint Entry, both potential Grand Prize Winners together) does not respond within twenty-four (24) hours following the initial notification attempt, is found to be not in compliance with these Official Rules, fails to timely return the requisite documents in a timely manner, or if the prize notification or prize is returned as undeliverable, the Grand Prize will be forfeited and, at Sponsor’s discretion and if time allows before the Event, awarded to the Contestant submitting the Submission with the next highest score, subject to confirmation in accordance with these Official Rules. 

GRAND PRIZE. One (1) Grand Prize Winner (the “Grand Prize Winner”) will receive two (2) tickets for Grand Prize Winner and one (1) guest to WWE Survivor Series® (the “Event”) currently scheduled for November 25, 2023, at Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois (the “Event City”); round-trip economy class air transportation for the Grand Prize Winner and one (1) guest between the major commercial airport near Grand Prize Winner’s permanent residence and the Event City (as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion); two (2) nights hotel accommodations (one (1) standard room, double occupancy/hotel designated by Sponsor in its sole discretion); ground transportation between airport and hotel; and at Sponsor’s sole discretion the opportunity to appear in a social media video featuring a WWE Superstar.  With respect to a Joint Entry, the two Contestants who entered together will be deemed the Grand Prize Winner jointly and will be required to take the Grand Prize trip together (with no guest).

Approximate retail value (“ARV”) of the Grand Prize package: $2,000.00 USD. The ARV is determined as of the date of the printing of these Official Rules. The difference in the value of the prize as stated herein and value at time of prize notification, if any, will not be awarded.
