raffle a dog, ill buy a ticket!
"what we have here is a failure to communicate" from COOL HAND LUKE
I just spoke to Chris. First, I owe him an apology for getting caught up in the mood on here and doubting his integrity. I am convinced that he is a troubled young man, caught up in extremely difficult circumstances. He admitted to me and to us all that he handled this badly, and he did. But the fact is, he offered my money back, and i choose to believe that he is honest, naive, and in a box. I suggest that we rekindle in ourselves the same spirit that prompted us to help him by buying these tickets, and forgive him his trespass. He doesn't need to be denigated any more in this forum---he acknowledged his mistakes, he apologised for them, so let's let him get back to taking care of his family. His wife was not covered by insurance, and as we know, medical bills can eat you alive.
This guy trains dogs, and from what I can tell, is pretty good at it. Perhaps one of you guys who lives close could take over the raffle on the Rem 870 and make sure
1. we help out a genuinely good guy, a fellow hunter, and a family man.
2 the raffle is run above board and is done correctly
what say you, guys. I'll buy another 100 worth of tickets if one of you runs it
I can't raffle another trip. The guy I guide for already donated one and he raffled it off already.CHRIS, raffle a duck hunting trip---

There was a guy on there that said his dad bought a ticket and never got it, for neither one of the draws. He might have been the winner.
Second I find no info on a Brian Spillers in tx.(no where) However there are 3 in La, 4 if you use Bryant as one. And 2(1-Bryant) are in West Monroe and 2 west and northwest of alexandria.
It just smells fishy,(I'm the "trust no one" kind of person) just because he won't give name and address of FFL to be used for transfer, which should be public due to being a business. I only bought one so no big loss(help a fellow out), but those that bought 5 or 10 would be.
A couple of other things,
I don't know about any other insurance, but for an auto wreck you have medical coverage. My wife is good at finding that out. He said his wife was not insured, and that would mean no ins. on vehicle so as not to be insured. And another small quirk is that the news article about the wreck said his daughter was 18 months old, and on his website he states his daughter was born in dec. 26th, 2007. The 2007 may just be a typo and should be 2006. Just letting you know in case you feel some of the members may want to know. Do with it what you want....[Name Withheld]
