I Won a Date with Bobby Rydell
by Allene Coffey

I still can't believe it happened! Thank heaven, I have these gorgeous pictures to look at and keep forever -- so that my wonderful memories can always be cherished.

When I entered 16's Win A Date With Bobby Rydell Contest, I considered myself just one of millions. I certainly never thought I'd not only win the coveted date with my dream-boy, Bobby -- but also get a fabulous Bobby Rydell Treasure Chest, too!

These pictures here speak for themselves, but please let me tell you about soem of the wonders in the Treasure Chest: I got a personal letter from Bobby (and I do mean personal), all his LPs (and they were personally autographed), two large autographed photos of Bobby, one of his own tuxedo evening shirts with his "Ryd" laundry mark on it, a blouse he picked out for me with our initials monogrammed on it, and three adorable surprise presents.

But the greatest thing of all was the lovely solid gold engraved charm bracelet Bobby sent me. You just have to see it to believe it. And besides all this, Bobby Rydell called me on the phone and we talked for ten long minutes. I'm still walking on clouds and expect to be for at least six more months!
