Competition announcement - We like Best Coast 50 times!


"Like, where do we live again?"

A week ago we launched the bestest competition ever - we gave away a signed ‘life map’ of Californian surf band Best Coast! During our stalker-style interview with Bethany, Bob and Ali, we gave them a map of LA to pencil in their favourite hang-outs, music haunts and other personal digs special to them. 

We had a hungry influx of peeps all wanting to win the map, the only obstacle in their path was to count how many times Betsy said the work ‘LIKE’ in our SUPERSWEET TV interview


So how many times did she overuse the word ‘LIKE’? 7, 39, 150, 1000? We were surprised by the amount of grossly incorrect answers. Are you guys deaf or something? If you’re itching to know, here’s the correct answer….

BETHANY ACTUALLY SAID THE WORD ‘LIKE’ 50 TIMES!!!!

Only one entrant came close enough to warrant winning, and that was Magali Palma from California. Even though she counted 51 likes instead of the correct number of 50, we decided to give her the prize because... 

a) because she made this amazing list:
  1. :25
  2. :42
  3. :58
  4. 1:43
  5. 1:44
  6. 1:51
  7. 1:56
  8. 1:56
  9. 4:38
  10. 4:58
  11. 4:50
  12. 4:52
  13. 4:57
  14. 5:06
  15. 5:10
  16. 5:13
  17. 5:15
  18. 5:31
  19. 5:34
  20. 5:50
  21. 5:54
  22. 5:57
  23. 5:58
  24. 6:28
  25. 6:29
  26. 6:33
  27. 6:40
  28. 6:42
  29. 6:46
  30. 6:47
  31. 6:48
  32. 6:47
  33. 6:54
  34. 6:55
  35. 7:00 (that like was an actual LIKE)
  36. 7:25
  37. 7:29
  38. 7:31
  39. 7:35
  40. 7:37
  41. 7:39
  42. 7:41
  43. 7:42
  44. 7:49
  45. 7:52
  46. 7:59
  47. 8:02
  48. 8:09
  49. 8:11
  50. 8:21
  51. 8:53
b) she was only over the mark from being too eager to hear the word 'like'! (She counted 2 likes at 1:43 and 1:44 when Bethany only said like once at 1:43 minutes)

b) she must be Best Coast’s number 1 fan!

Consolations to everyone else. Rest assured we’ll run another Best Coast competition soon with more ridiculous prizes on offer.

Surfs’ out dudes!
