We were duped!

It looks like our grand prize winning photograph from the state fair wasn't as authentic as we thought, and was instead part of some strange act put on by the guy pictured above.  The guy, who according to his MySpace page is named Gordon, thought it would be fun to get all dressed up and go the fair and act silly, which he seemed to accomplish.  We know this because Gordon writes about it on his MySpace Blog.  He also created a separate post where he brags about winning our contest.  In it, he says:

My good friend Schmitz asked my persmission to submit one of my State Fair pics to a contest at thelostogle.com. I, of course, said yes and I, of course, won! My picture was voted the best picture from the fair. And because I won, I get a FREE t-shirt! Thanks Schmitz! Ch-Ch-Check it out!
