THIS CONTEST IS NOW OVER. PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL TO SEE IF YOU'VE WON!
Bill Hicks was one of the funniest comedians of our time. So funny, he had to leave Earth and is waiting for us in the future. Last year at SXSW we saw the touching, unapologetic, and hilarious documentary that celebrated Hicks' life, AMERICAN: THE BILL HICKS STORY. On Tuesday, June 7th the film releases on Blu-ray and DVD and we've teamed up with the directors, Matt Harlock and Paul Thomas to give our readers a chance at winning the DVD and a poster signed by Bill's family. If you want good things to happen in your life, you'll want to own this movie.
For your chance to win, all you have to do is fill out the form after the break. Deadline ends at 11:59 PM on Thursday, June 9th. On Friday, June 10th, we will announce a winner via random drawing and notify them by email. Good luck, movie lovers!
