Speaker 1 (00:00):
Look, we have to pull out all the stops. We've
got some luck, you know, like putting something on the
line here to get people to sign up and have
a chance to win this contest, including I think either
your career or your life was on the line. One time.
It was my entire life. It was hanging in the balance.
And then we got a winter like an hour later,
which was hilarious. We did. We were talking about I
was going to sing the entirety of Bohemian Rhapsody, including
(00:22):
the entire instrumentation and guitar solos. If we didn't get
a winner by the five o'clock hour, sure enough of
the two o'clock hour today we got ourselves a winner.
And her name is Krista and she is from Omaha.
She is joining us on the phone line right now.
Christ First of all, congratulations, you're a big winner.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Oh thank you. It's just amazing.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Okay. So yeah, so how long have you played? You
played the contest quite a bit since.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
The inception, and I've just been so faithful to you know,
stopping what I'm doing and getting in on the keyboard
and people kind of look at me like what's a keyword?
And so it was just oh, my friends are so excited.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Yeah, I mean, who's laughing? Now? You got a thousand
bucks coming to you. So they called you. What did
they say to you?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Well, at first they called and I almost didn't answer
because it came up unknown number yep, and I figured
out it's probably a political call. But then I happened
to be glanced at the clock and there was about
two or three minutes before the hour, and I thought,
could it be? And then the guy said he was
from my Heart radio contest and that I was the winner.
(01:28):
And I just like, are you kidding me? I mean
I really said, are you kidding me? So he said, yeah,
you're the winner.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
That's so cool. Okay. So Chris, For anybody out there,
you know, when they get a thousand dollars, I'm sure
the thoughts are running rampant through your mind, like, oh,
what can I do with this thing? You know, how
you want to spend this money? I know you've only
had it. You know, you don't really even have it
in your possession at this point right now, but it's
only been a couple hours. You know what you want
to do with this thing?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
You know? I do know what I want to do
with it. I am taking my grand daughter, daughter in law,
my sister in law to the Final four volleyball tournament.
And I've always already bought my tickets and everything that
I would like. What I would like to do is
upgrade my seating because I called right away when the
tickets went on sale, but still in the nosebleed. Yeah,
(02:17):
and my granddaughter is a volleyball fanatic, and I would
really like to upgrade those seats. So that's what I'd
like to do.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
That is awesome, What a great way to use that money.
That is so cool, Chris, and we love to see that.
So congratulations. I mean, you've done a great service for
yourself with one thousand bucks and hopefully your family with
the Final four volleyball tickets. But also you've done a
great service to Matt and I on this station, so
