Date Check

Have you ever wanted to be a contestant on your favorite game show? Well now's your chance with the Intelius DateCheck Baggage Contest!

This contest offers entrants the opportunity to win a trip to LA to visit the set of GSN Live and to audition for a GSN show.

In order to be eligible for the prize, entrants must submit an original video (no greater than one minute in length) that lays their baggage on the line to demonstrate why they would be a good Baggage contestant. After initial judging (based on creativity, originality, and explanation of why you want to be on Baggage) the winners will be decided by public vote.

Two prizes will be awarded: one for best submission by a male and one for best submission by a female. The total prize package, worth approximately $2000 each, will include an autographed picture of Jerry Springer, a visit to the set of GSN Live, an opportunity to meet GSN Live talent, roundtrip airfare to and from Los Angeles, California, two nights hotel accommodations, $200 to cover transportation to and from the GSN studios, and an opportunity to audition to be a contestant on a GSN show.

The wait is finally over! Voting has closed, hundreds of votes have been tallied, and the winners of the $1000 DateCheck Dream Date contest have been determined! After narrowing down our list to 16 video and 16 essay finalists we turned the voting over to the public. Here's who you picked to be the grand-prize winners:

Grand Prize Male Video Winner: Mark Taio Kines

Mark's video, "A Very Animated Date", features hand-drawn depictions of himself and the lucky lady on their dream date. Mark's date would include brunch in the forest, riding the rollercoaster on the Santa Monica pier and getting the best seats in the house for a show in downtown L.A.

Grand Prize Female Video Winner: Angela Heine

"A Whale of a Date", Angela's stop-scene video, details how, for her dream date, she would buy round-trip tickets to Seattle to go kayaking in the San Juan Islands with Orca Whales. Her video cleverly ends with, "And the next morning...back to peanut butter sandwiches."

Grand Prize Essay Winner: Elizabeth Williams

Elizabeth's essay, "Love Finds a Way," lays out some very clear instructions to her long-distance boyfriend: fill her apartment with vases of tulips, a new dress for their special evening, and an ultra-romantic dinner for two at the restaurant where they had their first date.You can read Elizabeth's entry here.

Each winner will receive a $1000 giftcard to be spent on their dream date and a private relationship analysis worth $750. Each entrant received a FREE Intelius DateCheck coupon code, a comprehensive relationship report from MatchMatrix & a Fleurish Hat Chocolate Box from Seattle Chocolates.
