It’s 4:20 somewhere… so inhale, exhale, and start writing. You just might win tickets to see Cypress Hill.
That’s right! Riot Fest alum Cypress Hill are taking the stage at Chicago’s Ruido Fest in Union Park next weekend on Sunday, August 21st. We’re giving away a pair of Sunday passes—and all you have to do is write an “ode to the green” (AKA, a poem about your love for the devil’s lettuce). Write your entry using the form below.
The writer of the best poem will win a pair of passes for the Sunday of Ruido Fest and their poem will be shared on Ruido Fest’s IG for the world to see! Contest ends on Monday, August 15 at 5:00 p.m. CDT (the winner will be notified).
