JOEL: Enter to Win to see Ellen! OFFICIAL RULES AND DETAILS! 4/28/'08

Hey all...

Now's your chance to enter to see Ellen DeGeneres tape her show LIVE in downtown Chicago THIS Saturday, May 3. Tickets were gone incredibly fast but guess what...

I have 2 VIP tickets for you!!

These are 2 tickets Ellen gave me (when I went to see her in L.A.) and we are giving them to you. They are VIP tickets. Her show in L.A. only fits 215 people...this one will be at least 1,000!

Here's what you need to do: Email us your name, age (must be 18), address, phone number, and any other contact info we might need. Send emails to ELLEN@WNDU.COM no later than 3 p.m. this Wednesday (April 30). A winner for the 2 tickets will be RANDOMLY drawn during our 5 p.m. newscast on Wednesday.

** Please note: ONLY ONE ENTRY PER PERSON (yes, we will be sorting through and checking for duplicates).

Send those entries in by Wednesday 3 p.m. and GOOD LUCK!!

P.S. As a reminder, you can catch my exclusive interview with Ellen during the morning show and 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 8 (part 1) and Friday, May 9 (part 2).

I offered Ellen a swap- my cubbie tixs (which I had to wait on line for hours to get)-for her show! I even had my people call her people- no response. Such a huge fan of hers- I would love to go and take my sister!

God I love Ellen, just wished I could watch her during the day. Unfortuneatly I have to work but........I would play hookie just for her. Shhhhhh don't tell anybody I said that. The nice thing is the show is on a Saturday and I would give up my sleep to be there. I do love to dance

Today is my last day at work. I am retiring and can't think of a more enjoyable way to celebrate than to go to Chicago w/ my retired friend of more than 30 plus years !!

I am sooooo happy that you are offering the chance to win a pair of tickets to see Ellen in Chicago. She is my alltime favorite comedian/talk show host. So funny and such a positive attitude. Woo Hoo! My hubby's birthday is May 4th and it would be an awesome birthday present to present to him.

I would love a chance to see Ellen. I watch her show every day since I retired last August. She is so caring and does so much for her fans. I.ve never been on a televison show and it would certainly be an experience to remember. Especially with Ellen.

my husband and are both laid off due our rotten economy, and even though my husband has been looking for work,he's had no luck. We both enjoy watching Ellen and the chance to see her would really lift our spirits.And I know it would be a boost to our morale just to get out of our little town, even if it is just for a day. And to see Ellen would be so cool!!!!!

Would like to have these tickets to give to my daughter-in-law. I did not lose a son, I gained a daughter. She is wonderful to my son and a beautiful and thoughtful mother to my grandson. It would make her day to see Ellen. Thanks.

I would love to see the Ellen show from WNDU in chicago because she nakes my day. I am legally blind and I have been fighting cancer. It does'nt stop me because I smile each day and dance with Ellen's music and laugh at her jokes. I even have my husband turned on to her. He adores her and she makes both of us laugh. He has purchased a recorder so we can watch her togeather at night. Tell her she makes so many people happy and if we don't receive tickets, please have a wonderful day and stay safe. Sincerely, Penny Thomas Also I can see with my heart and Ellen is beautiful inside and out. Thanks

I would be so excited to go see Ellen. I think she is great. I watch her show every chance I get. I work full time so it's not always easy to see her show.

My birthday is April 30th and I can't imagine a better surprise than to find out I won the tickets to see Ellen. I'm sure everyone can say what a huge fan they are so there isn't anything that I can add. It's my birthday, Ellen always makes me smile and laugh and I have never won anything. This would be awesome!

I just emailed you for a chance at the Ellen tickets...did you get it? I'm not very good with a PC, and all my kids are gone at the moment...I would like to try again, but that would be 2 if in fact the first time did go through. THX, I love WNDU!

She does things that everyone else justs wants to do. Dance in front of people and call strangers (people) on the phone and joke. She's funny because everything she says is true and sometimes that's the funniest things is the true stuff, that's just so ridiculous.

I've been wanting to attend a taping of ellen's show, but it's hard for me to get time off of school to attend one, out in Calafornia. When I knew that ellen was coming to CHICAGO, I figured this was my oportunity to attend a taping. I tried for tickets through her show, but never heard, so I'm really hoping that this can help me see Ellen and her show. I'll keep my fingers crossed!!!! Vicki
