One Player Picks 15 Correct

Robert Manning was the only entrant in The Monticello News football contest to have a perfect score of 15—picking the winners in all 15 games listed, high school, college and pro.

Mr. Manning’s son, DeVaughn, picked up his dad’s $25 prize from Rod Cronan at R&R Discount Goods, last week’s prize sponsor. Mr. Manning was the first adult winner in this year’s contest, but there’s still a child receiving the prize.

R&R Discount Foods is relatively new business in Monticello, and a first-year contest sponsor. The grocery store is located on Venture Court off Hwy. 16 west in Monticello.

Mr. Manning gets his name on the grand prize honor roll for the second time this season. Another 115 players also got 12 or more correct to qualify for the grand prize honor roll. The grand prize is tickets for four to the Chick-fil-A bowl, pitting the ACC against the SEC. The game is scheduled for New Year’s Eve, Dec. 31, at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta.
