Caption Contest 261... and the winners of 260

Caption Contest 261... and the winners of 260

Stacy Innerst is the artist. You are the caption writer.

CapCon 260 (click on second image above) focused on a police lineup fit for a dog, and it brought us a champion who had last won the contest (which just celebrated its 10th anniversary) eight years ago. CapCon 261 invites you to come up with all the wording genius of a Shakespeare in helping our second decade get off to a good start.

Send up to three entries to page2@post-gazette.com or mail to: Caption Contest/Portfolio, Post-Gazette, 34 Blvd. of the Allies, Pittsburgh PA 15222. Please include name and address and identify your municipality or Pittsburgh city neighborhood. Deadline: May 4. Winners receive a PG umbrella, built even to resist Mother Nature’s graupel (whatever that is).
