Tweet Contest Winner!
Whew! After going through what seems like ten billion tweets, I sat down with Sweeney and Conan today and we picked our winner! Here's the announcement:
If you're impatient, here are the top 5 finalists after the jump:
As promised, Conan will be tweeting your tweet sometime tomorrow - and you, as well as the other four finalists, will be receiving a signed Conan O'Brien Junk Tour Poster!!! ROCK!! Like I said, it was really hard to narrow the over 700(!) entries we received down to just a few; you guys should ALL be really proud of the work you did. It was awesome to discover that we've got such funny and amazingly talented fans!!
