Caption Contest 05 Sep - 12 Sep 2017
Posted By: NickDB, 09-05-2017, 12:09 AM

Pumbaa vs Pumbaa! I managed to record the shock of a real warthog encountering the tin version in the bush. I wonder what they said to each other?

Submissions can be in any written form (no video or audio files) — caption, limerick, motivational, poem or prose — whatever inspires you to describe the photo or catch attention. Submit by replying to the thread. Contestants may submit more than one entry but it must be in a separate post. Important: Even if you do not submit an entry, please “like” any posts you feel deserve it as this is how the winner is chosen. And if you DO submit an entry, please also find an entry that you like from among your competitors' efforts and "like" that one as well.

The "thread starter" is the moderator and must post an original photo at the start of the thread. In case of a tie the moderator will choose one to break the tie. After determination of the contest's winner, that winner will be notified ASAP after by the current Thread Starter/Contest Host and will become responsible for posting the next original work to be captioned. Enter often, vote more often. and most important: Have fun !

Folks - my apologies for missing the time-cut after the last caption contest. Here is a snapshot I took in the bush of a real warthog meeting a tin version of itself. I wonder what they said to each other?

Bob suddenly realized that hunting from a "trojan horse" looking like a wild wart hog may not have been the smartest approach...

OK Gang, time to announce the winner. This week it is "studiofm" who got the most likes with a very funny 'Tough Love' caption, and so I am happy to proclaim studiofm the winner. Doubly happy because this captioneer was actually asked to step in when I defaulted a couple of weeks ago, for which I apologize one last time. The sacred baton has been passed to you, and we look forward to your next snapshot.
