https://carltondry.com.au/legendsofthedry/upload/?jsWin a trip for 4 to LAEverybody's got stories. The sort of things you tell your mates over a beer, funny stuff, exciting stuff, stuff that gets better the more you tell it
If yours is the best story we'll fly you and three mates to LA and have it made into a 3 minute movie. That movie will then be released online and previewed on national TV.
But who cares about that crap? The only thing that matters is that Steven Seagal will be playing you.
Think you've got the story to take out the major prize?
Tell us about it
Every story wins a prize
Because this is for beer there are rules, follow them or we won't be able to show your movie. So sorry, but no nudity, excessive drinking (you can have a couple), racism or discrimination, swearing, dangerous or hazardous activity or stuff that's illegal- because we'll have to reject it.
