John Atkinson

John Atkinson has a chance to play golf with Tony Romo, Justin Timberlake, and Matt Lauer at Torrey Pines, with your vote. John has stage four lung cancer (non smoker) has appeared on the Big Show with Matt Perrault and Travis Justice and the Todd and Tyler Radio Empire asking people to vote for him and give him this dream golf day.

The problem with this contest is that you have to register just to see the guys trying to win this vote, including requiring a mailing address. So if you want to vote for John, use a fake email and postal address, it doesn't seem to verify legitimate ones. It sounds like a bad promotion to get people to buy GolfDigest magazine.

But anyway, John currently has 21796 votes, followed by these guys... I don't know why anybody would vote for them.
Erik Norton, Boston, Hedge-fund trader, MIT golf team - 5925
Matt Rice, Santa Monica, Police Officer - 3939
Philip Dembure,Atlanta,Health care provider - 2706
Ross Troike, Memphis, FedEx pilot, U.S. Navy Reserve - 6387
You have to register to vote for John, so make sure you check NO to all the spam you don't want, on this site.
