Second Annual John O'Connor Humor Contest

Phoenix Rotary 100 will host the Second Annual “John J. O’Connor Phoenix Rotary 100 Humor Contest” on February 1, 2012 at noon at its regular Friday meeting at Phoenix Country Club. Justice Sandra Day O’Connor will be the guest of the Club that day.

Last year’s inaugural event was a tremendous success. There were four outstanding contestants and the room was full of life and energy. Justice O’Connor and her family greatly enjoyed being a part of the program that honored her late husband who was a great lawyer, quite the raconteur and President of Phoenix Rotary 100 in 1977-78.

Attorneys, law students and law professors are eligible. It is a pretty neat deal with prizes of $2,500, $1,500 and $500 to the top three contestants. Presentations can be 3 - 6 minutes of classic stand-up comedy, funny stories, war stories or humorous anecdotes.

Additionally, $2,000 will be paid to each of ASU, U of A and Phoenix School of Law on a rotating basis (ASU being the recipient this year).

Further information can also be found on the Phoenix Rotary 100 website at http://www.rotary100.org/Portals/0/HumorContestApplication2013.pdf

Applications should be in as soon as possible because there will be preliminary judging on January 24, 2012 at Phoenix Country Club.
