Eligibility :
The Meet Mike Sweepstakes (the “Promotion”) is open only to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States (including District of Columbia) who are at least eighteen (18) years old at the time of entry.

Timing :
The Promotion begins on October 7, 2008 at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) and ends on December 18, 2008 at 8:59 p.m. ET (the “Promotion Period”).

How to enter:
There are three (3) ways to enter and participate in this Promotion during the Promotion Period. You may enter the Sweepstakes for your chance to win the Grand Prize described in Section 9 of these Official Rules and you may also participate in the Instant Win Game for your chance to win one of the many prizes that are also described in Section 9. Here’s how to play:

  • Sweepstakes Entry Method #1: You may receive one (1) entry by visiting http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/dirtyjobs/
    sweepstakes/meetmike.html
    (“Promotion Site”) and completing the online entry form with the requested information, including your first and last name, email address and mailing address. P.O. Boxes are not permitted. If this is your first time registering you automatically will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes.
  • Sweepstakes Entry Method #2: You may also receive up to thirty-three (33) additional Sweepstake entries by participating in the trivia game offered on the Promotion Site. Here’s how to play – first, you must log onto the Promotion Site during the Promotion Period between each Tuesday at 9:00 p.m. ET through the following Tuesday at 8:59 p.m. ET (except during the last week of the Promotion when you have through December 18, 2008 at 8:59 p.m. to log on and answer the questions) (“Weekly Trivia Time Period”). During each Weekly Trivia Time Period, you will be presented three (3) trivia questions, which you may answer at any time during that Weekly Trivia Time Period. For each trivia question that you correctly answer you will receive an additional Sweepstakes entry. Thus, you may receive up to three (3) additional Sweepstakes entries per Weekly Trivia Time Period and, because there will be eleven (11) Weekly Trivia Time Periods during the entire Promotion Period, you may receive up to thirty-three (33) entries into the Promotion via this method.
