Mike McKay Announces Winner of Twitter Contest

Saatchi LA ECD Mike McKay‘s Twitter contest has closed and the winner is Austin-based Jonathan Pelleg, aka @Pegleginton. Seemingly gracious enough, Pelleg says on his Twitter page, “Thank you, everybody, this is pretty unbelievable. It’s pretty hard work getting work.”

His winning line? “You have to be concise on Twitter. Like a circumcision, everything extra gets cut off whether you like it or not.” You can read some of the other entries here.
