The question is: Does Billy normally listen to this Kalamazoo lite rock station or did a closer-to-Kalamazoo friend or relative tell him about the contest and give him the information necessary to play? Can Billy even receive WQLR 106.5 FM radio in Watervliet? My guess is the latter. He did not sound enthuastic about calling in, like he was either asked or told to call in. In addition, WQLR's target demographic is middle aged females, like office workers. Billy is now the owner of two passes to the Goodrich Quality Theatre's Kalamazoo 10 movie theatre in Oshtemo Township, less than a mile west of Fairfield Broadcasting studios in Kalamazoo Township. Will Billy drive to 4200 West Main Street to pick-up his consolation prize? Would you? I don't think I would. I don't think the prize is valuable enough to warrant the drive. In addition, if Billy works first shift, he probably can't make it to Kalamazoo in order to even pick-up his prize during normal business hours from Fairfield Broadcasting's long-time receptionist, Ollie. Then, you have the issue of being in Kalamazoo to use the movie passes and to find a movie worth 90-120 minutes of your time. I have never liked going to movie theatres, so that's another reason I would not retrieve the movie passes. I feel confined in the most comfrontable, modern, movie theatre stadium-style seating. I also do not enjoy trying to watch a movie with other people around and their distractions. I prefer to wait until a movie is available on home video and I can view it in home comfort, by which time I have forgotten all the spoilers contained in the trailers. I guess it would be fun if those of you in Berrien County were to give me the contest information for radio contests in the Benton Harbor, South Haven, Buchanan, Niles, South Bend, Elkhart, and Michigan City areas. You could post the necessary details in reply to this message and I could attempt a similarly distant appearance on a Berrien or Saint Joseph County, Indiana radio station.
