So, with that $1,000 I could buy a wallet. Just like Tony Stark's!

what's the point of being tony stark for one weekend? i mean who wants to be a rich, drunk, ass-hole just long enough to get into serious trouble only to realize the title has been revoked by the time the court date roles around?

Boy that graphic, combined with my too late night of gameplay really makes me think that they went the wrong direction with the Iron Man video game. GTA Tony Stark anyone? Build up your empire and instead of using a code to spawn a harrier jet, you just put on your Iron Man suit and do your missions, while also getting drunk and gettin some tail.

Everyone I know who is living above the poverty line spends a grand on something or other at least once a year. Might be furniture or a computer or business clothes or tools or whatever.

If the people putting this together thought a $1000 would be a huge thrill, they are aiming pretty low.

This will be WAY more successful than the "Matt Murdock for a weekend" contest

Do I get to abuse alcohol and pork Pepper?

I already have a drinking problem, so this is the perfect contest for me.

@TommySez: mmmmmmm.... Pepperrr........@Ryan H: You sir, sound like a spoiled brat... I'll take a free grand and smile about it anyday!

@DSTRYA: "This will be WAY more successful than the "Matt Murdock for a weekend" contest"

I could never see that one either.

@zerofritz: "I already have a drinking problem, so this is the perfect contest for me."

I have no problem drinking, but I like it, too.

@RAHfanboy: Neither could the contest winner... they throw radioactive waste into their eyes.

Just a heads up for the Iron fans, the movie is actually being released (sort of) a day early. Instead of midnight screenings on Thursday night, you can catch it as early as 8 p.m., with other showtimes throughout the evening (depending on the theater - check your local listings).

Apologies if this is old news - I just found out myself.

@spacedcowboy: a free grand, sure, but a free grand only usable on rodeo drive? what is that supposed to cover, the down payment?

@DSTRYA: Awesome.

Yeah, I live like Tony Stark EVERY weekend. Well, except for the money, the hot assistant, and I don't remember Tony waking up in a running car with vomit on his shirt.

But other than that, just like Tony!

"Private Helicopter Tour and Dinner" Isn't it going to be difficult to eat dinner on that helicopter?

@spacedcowboy:
Hey, I resemble that remark!
heh
No, I'm a starving recent graduate. But a $1000 is hardly a huge sum for an millionaire weekend contest. The local radio stations give away more than that on a regular basis. Not that I wouldn't mind winning it myself, but it feels like the contest promoters are being a little stingy.

Mtv is doing this and all they can afford is a grand? What year is it again? It sounds like it's 1983 and they are still playing music videos.

So they have decided to forgo providing Tony Stark with electro-mechanical genius? What, is their Matrix skill downloader on the fritz again?
