ok so Download Festival ran a competition called 'Walk The Dog' where people had to get the the Download Dog in peoples faces and noticed and spread the word of the Download Festival. Earlier today the winner was announced.
The winner was Tristan Allen - you can watch his entry here http://youtube.com/watchv=u4m6y6JJU68
ok just looking at the comments on the video people found that it said:
What has this got to do with Download 2007
The last minute of it was just looped
The dog featured in 20 seconds of it
So we are to assume chavs are evil and therefore should be killed. Nice message.
Ozzy was last year - not only that but it was actually Black Sabbath
How does this spread the word of Download/Donnington
How does this "walk the dog"
How does this "get into peoples faces"
The quality of it isn't even all that great when you compare it to other videos
The video got less views and less ratings than Niles entry into the competition without prompting people to do so
this beat entries such as Nile Plumb's - http://www.youtube.com/watchv=02k7PKpDNUE
and Janusz Jasinski's entry - http://downloaddog.co.uk
so what i'm asking is that if you feel that the winner in undeserving of the prize and you fell that Nile or Janusz should have won please sign this
thanks, Matt (matttrolliSOAD)
