IFC's 'Dress Your Kid/Pet Like a Rock Star' Contest

— September 25, 2008 — Marketing
Competitive parents are always funny and this competition for IFC.com exploits this to a tee. This non-tacky contest lets you dress your pets AND babies up like rockstars. I am determined to enter if I can coax my cat into a KISS style costume complete with the finest prosciutto di Parma. Hey, there is even a guinea pig entry for Jeremy!

The concept is simple: Dress up your child or pet, as a rocker and send in the picture for a chance to win $5000.
