Travis Rice and Bluebird gave away a butt-load of free stuff. And not just like some t-shirts and stickers... good free stuff. Like brand new Lib-tech snowboards, next years Quiksilver Outerwear, a brand new Red Bull PSP, and apparently a slightly used Bluebird Bus. (We're still trying to figure that one out.)

If you did enter, watch the video to hear Travis draw your name out of the bucket and butcher it. Or maybe you are one of the guys that almost won (unfortunately, and this is a little known fact, T.Rice is a bit of a pyro and lit some of the entries on fire). You'll never know unless you scope this video out.

Plus, some lost shred footage of Travis from god-knows-where. Yeah, bonus.

In 1997 some of you probably weren't even born yet, but this is what us old-farts had for shred porn.

No one had heard of Shaun White, or Danny Kass, or freshly cut 22 foot halfpipes. The idea of using a helicopter to film snowboarding was ridiculous. Travis Rice was just an annoying grom that followed the Jackson Hole Bluebird crew around town trying to fit in.

In 1997 Lance Pitman, Willie Mcmillon and Bryan Iguchi were IT. Every pro-ho in a resort town had a poster of Brandon Ruff on their wall. They were the playboys of snowboarding, pioneering a cushy path to rockstar status for all of the over-saturated sponsored riders of today.

Tip your hat, poor one out and pay your respects. This video is your history lesson for today.

Head over to www.bluebirdwax.com to watch more bluebird vids and scope out a rad brand that's been around longer than you've been alive.

When I was a kid I used to go to the local drug store after school with my friends and get these "mystery goodie bags". They were so cool. I would pay like $10 bucks (a whole weeks allowance) and pick out a brown paper bag. In it would be all kinds of random sh*t. Dumb toys (remember slap bracelets and POGS?), candy, baseball cards, stationary, chapstick, etc. You were stoked if you got something big and cool... like a ring-pop, a choose-your-own-adventure book, and an action figure everybody at school wanted. But mostly you got crap... like really bad tasting packs of gum they couldn't sell and a paper dress-a-doll package.

That was cool, but how cool would it be if you could've gotten a snowboard themed mystery bag (or box). And you were guaranteed there was going to be rad, useful sh*t inside of it. Like DVD's and wax and t-shirts? And occasionally some of those snowboard mystery boxes had a brand new, never worn jacket of Travis Rice's in it?

Oh, and on top of that... you were signed up to win a contest. And if you win said contest, you end up with next year's Travis Rice pro-model board from Lib-Tech (all signed and sh*t), That's it That's All on blue-ray (best snowboard movie ever), T-Shirts, and a bunch of other really cool crap.

You guys are so lucky, because the Bluebird crew out of Jackson Hole are doing just that. Watch this movie. Travis explains everything you can win (like how his new board has technology that hasn't even been dropped yet.)

And since it's a legit contest you don't have to actually buy a box to win... but you should. It's only $25 and it's going to be full of sh*t worth way more than that... stuff you'll actually use. And from the looks of these vids that keep coming through our door, the bluebird pro team is packing the boxes themselves. Who knows when Bryan Iguchi, or Kyle Clancy or maybe even T.Rice himself is going to "pack your box" and give it some of their own special love.

Check out these vids... and go to www.bluebirdwax.com to find out more, enter the contest to win some next level sh*t, and have some pro's pack some sh*t for you. (It's 'bout time someone made those guys do some real work.) Or you can just go straight HERE to sign up for a mystery box.
