Hurricane Katrina Raffle for Buffett Tix to Vegas

"A CREATIVE WAY TO HELP SOME OF HURRICANE KATRINA’S VICTIMS"

Parrot Head Clubs across the world are holding a raffle to help other Parrot Heads affected by Hurricane Katrina. Parrot Heads are fans of Jimmy Buffett’s music with clubs created worldwide. Although these are not fan clubs, they are clubs that volunteer in their local communities “to make life better than they found it while having a blast doing it”. They party for a purpose!

The cost of a raffle ticket is $10. The “winner-takes-all” receives: 2 Tickets to the Jimmy Buffett Concert in Las Vegas on October 22, 2005, 2 Tickets to the Band's Pre-Concert Party, 2 Personalized Signed Items From Jimmy Buffett, Hotel Room for 2 nights, coach airfare covered (up to $1,000), 2 tickets to the Mac McAnally show on 10-21 & Dinner for 2 at the Vegas Bahama Breeze. The deadline for purchase is October 7, 2005 and the winner will be drawn on October 13th.

The purpose of this raffle is to provide assistance to Parrot Heads who have been affected by Hurricane Katrina. All monies will be deposited into Parrot Heads in Paradise's Charitable Foundation PHIN (Parrot Heads in Need) Fund. People who are members of any recognized club will be eligible to receive funds from this raffle. Should all funds not be used for Parrot Heads, any remaining funds will be donated to the appropriate national hurricane disaster relief charity.

“By helping a Parrot Head in need, we will hopefully reduce some of the financial burden from outside sources, as well as be able to help one of our own” says Capt’n Harry (Fink) of the Tampa Bay Parrot Head Club.

The donation of all concert related prizes was made possible by Margaritaville Tequila.

You do not have to be a member of a Parrot Head club to enter the raffle. Tickets can be purchased by local clubs. Please see www.phip.com for a list of clubs. In addition, you can go to www.finsup.com/katrina to purchase raffle tickets online.

For more information please contact Capt’n Harry at 813-854 FINS (3467) captnfin@aol.com .

Just bought 20. If I can still get something autographed by him I think I would rather pass the prize on to a couple of parrotheads who lost their homes.

I donated my greenbacks and it would be a sweet lead-in to the MOTM. I'm glad I could do my part to help the folks that Katrina disrupted their lives.

Maybe somebody can help me with this - I went went to the web page and clicked on BUY NOW, then I chose the option under this heading:

Don't Have a PayPal Account?
You don't need an account. Pay securely using your credit card.

I entered my address and credit card info, and it came back telling my that I had to open a PalPal account, which I did. I tried to complete my purchase, and it came back telling me that I had to allow PalPal electronic access to my bank account, which I have no intention of doing, no matter how secure they claim their system to be.

I would surely hate to miss the opportunity to purchase these lottery tickets, is there not a way to do it by just supplying my valid credit card information?
