Win a trip to the 2012 Kentucky Derby from Ram Trucks

The Ram Truck Brand announced this contest today and getting your chance to win a trip to attend the 2012 Kentucky Derby is as simple as answering three pretty simple questions.

1. What three races must a horse win to be a Triple Crown champion?
2. Who awards the garland and the trophy at the Kentucky Derby?
3. What is the age of horses that race for the Triple Crown?

The odds are good that most horse racing fans will be able to easily answer these three questions but for those who aren’t familiar enough with the sport (and who aren’t familiar with using Google to search for the answers online), the Ram brand will be posting hints on the Ram Facebook page, the Ram Twitter channel and the Ram Zone official blog. Once you have acquired your answers to those three questions, you are asked to visit the Sports Central webpage assisting with the contest to post your replies in the comment section towards the bottom of the page.

Signing up to enter your answers to the Ram Triple Crown Challenge is literally as easy as putting in your name, your email address and answering those three questions. Once the contest has closed on April 6th at 11:59.59 Eastern Standard Time, the folks at from Sports Central will randomly pick two winners from the correct entries in the comment section and those winners will be notified on or around April 9th. The two winners will each get a trip for two to the 2012 Kentucky Derby including a three day/two night stay in Louisville, round trip airfare, ground transportation to the Derby (and to/from the airport, of course), and $400 spending cash for the winners to spend while attending the Run for the Roses.

As an avid horse racing fan, I turned my entry in early this morning so maybe I will see you under the Twin Spires!
