Deadline for “Don’t Mess with Texas” TV commercial submissions is June 28
Texans have until June 28 to submit their video in search for the next Don’t Mess with Texas commercial. The winning video will air during prime-time television.
The idea behind Car2Can, a first-ever video contest by Don’t Mess with Texas, is creatively showing how to get trash from cars to trashcans instead of the side of Texas roadways.
● The grand-prize winner’s video will air during prime-time television this summer, and the winner will also receive a $500 Wal-Mart gift card.
● The second-place winner will receive a Gibson Epiphone Les Paul II guitar branded by Sweet Leaf Tea.
● The third-place winner will receive a prize package from Sweet Leaf Tea.
Texans 18 or older can submit a video (shorter than two minutes) until June 28. Top videos will be posted online, where anyone in the state has the opportunity to vote for their favorite from July 1- July 12. The three winners, to be announced in early August, will be based on a combination of the input of expert judges and Texans’ votes.
Full contest details and rules are available here.

How about a video in which someone throws an empty coke can onto a yard, and then the owner screams "CASTLE LAW!" and releases dogs with bees in their mouths so when they bark they shoot bees.

Apparently Les Paul guitars <a href="http://www.nowpublic.com/sports/kyle-busch-smashes-guitar-trophy-after-nascar-win">aren't as popular as they used to be</a>:
