- ENTRY; NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER:
A. Individuals enter the Filmed Event portion of the Contest by submitting to Garmin online their story about their best on-the-water fail (each a “Submission”). The Submissions will be posted on @GarminFishHunt Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages, @GarminMarine Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as the respective social media pages of Garmin Fishing Pros Bill Dance, Scott Martin and Mark Daniels Jr. (the “Garmin Pros”). Representatives of Garmin will review each Submission to pick approximately ten contestants for a casting call. Those contestants picked for the casting call will be interviewed by Garmin representatives to get more detail about their on-the-water fail described in their Submissions, as well as to determine who is the “biggest fan” of each of the Garmin Pros. Four contestants (the “Finalists”) will be picked from the casting calls to appear in a filmed event to be held November 2, 2020 at 9:00 AM CT (the “Filmed Event”). At the Filmed Event, the Finalists will have the opportunity to win a Prize (as defined below). To win a Prize, the Finalist must correctly answer a trivia question regarding a Garmin Pro posed to the Finalist.
B. The Filmed Event will be broadcast on a Facebook Premier event (the “Facebook Premier Event”) on November 18, 2020 at 11:00 A.M. CT. Subject to the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 1, any person logged into the Facebook Premier Event (a “Premier Event Participant”) will be an entrant in the Contest and will be eligible to submit answers to the questions posed in the Filmed Event. The first such person to submit a correct answer to a question will win a STRIKER Cast. If a Finalist does not correctly answer the Biggest Fan trivia question posed to such Finalist, the first Premier Event Participant to correctly answer the question will win the Biggest Fan Prize, and the second Premier Event Participant to correctly answer that question will win a STRIKER Cast.
