Win a FREE Ticket to Mobile March Twin Cities

Hey gang,
I bought a ticket to MMTC a loooooong time ago. I found out later that, as a presenter, I get free entry. That being said, I'm giving away my ticket...for FREE!

Leave me a comment and let me know why you want to attend. It doesn't have to be a mushy sob story, or a tale of adversity. You don't have to make up anything or try to be funny. Honesty. That's all I want.

I'll pick one today.



Love and robots,

Breon
