And Now, A Very Special Contest...

I have two tickets here to the game tomorrow night between the Baylor Lady Bears and the Texas Tech Lady Trekkies. I will give them away to the person who can come up with the best story involving Mr. Meat Loaf, and how his music has changed your life. Please post your story below-- the winner will be announced in the morning.

Comments:
After hearing "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" I finally understood the game of baseball. It was quite an epiphany to finally understand what "getting to homeplate" really meant scoring. I was flabergasted at the simplicity of the whole procedure. After hearing that song, I really understood what in means to "sleep on it." The song covers such a wide array of terrific American traditions that I highly recommend it to everyone, especially the youngsters out there who are still having their doubts about these things. Meatloaf, the Razor's Man of the Year 2006. Huzzah!! (BTW, I won't be home on Wednesday night, so if I win, take Pootie and enjoy!)
 
The DJ played "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" at my wedding. Which everyone took as a good time to go to the bar, leaving only two drunk people (one of whom may or may not have been my best man) to do an elaborate improntu interpretive dance to the whole song.

Unsurprisingly, my marriage would end in divorce. I blame Meatloaf.

* I am ineligible for the basketball tickets because LSU is scheduled to destroy Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl tomorrow night. And I must watch.
 
Guy walks into a less than fancy diner. He orders, and his food arrives. He looks up unhappily and says to the waitress "Hey, theres a Meat Loaf in my Hair."
 
Isn't "fancy diner" an oxymoron?

The manager of the nasty student and angry loner apartment complex where I lived for the first year of law school kept calling my radio show begging me to play Meat Loaf.

I told her the album had been stolen.

And I'm not coming to Waco for another 12 days or so.
 
Once again, IpLawGuy wins!!!!!

I think this is a sign that he needs to move to Waco.

SO tell me about the Lady Texas Trekkies...

No, don't.
 
Is their mascot a vulcan? Are their ears kind of.. you know... pointy?

WOW. I 'll bet no one has have made those jokes ever before.
 
Do you remember that Dr Pepper commercial with Meatloaf's "I Would Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)"? I can't do it justice, so here's the link on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1r3Je7t7G8

I hear it's a true story.
 
Winner!

It's Brian McKinney! I'll email you secret instructions to you via facebook.
 
Ever since I heard my first Meat Loaf song "I Would Do Anything For Love", I have been unable to eat my mother's Meatloaf. I guess "I won't do that."

Not in town. Have fun with the worthy winner at the game!
 
I'm a little late on this one but my mother used to date Meatloaf.

That's it. That's all I got.
 
Hey, uh, you think maybe your Mom might be coming to graduation or something?
