The Gator is Still Loose, but Here’s the Gator-fy a Punk Album Contest Winners

You probably thought the Chicago gator would be caught by now. We did too. He’s still swimming around in the Humboldt Park lagoon, though—in the meantime, we held a contest to Gator-fy a Punk Album for a chance to win Riot Fest tickets. We’ve picked our three winners.

We had a lot of fantastic entries, but these three took the cake for effort and creativity. Check out the winning entries below from Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, each who will recieve a pair of 3-day GA passes to Riot Fest 2019:

FACEBOOK WINNER: Jon Peschke

TWITTER WINNER: Kylynn Smith

INSTAGRAM WINNER: Aaron Retter

Thanks to everyone for participating! It was pretty tough to pick just three favorites, so we put together a gallery of some other punk gator album covers that we loved. Check it out below:
