Heads (or Tails) up, Tweeters, and you could win.

By Jennie on June 17th, 2009 ·

colbert_coin_100Our good friends at Comedy Central Insider have announced the ‘Colbert’s Iraqi Coin Toss Twitter Challenge’. This is the chance to win be awarded the official “military” coin “issued” for Operation Iraqi Stephen (and given to the troops attending the shows in Baghdad) by twitting above and beyond the call of duty. But you’ve only got until June 22!

What’s the most you ever lost in a coin toss, friend-o? Better yet, what’s the most you ever won? Well, in Colbert’s Iraqi Coin Toss you could win this rare coin commemorating Stephen Colbert’s historic trip to Iraq. Not only is he the first television host to tape an entire week of shows within a battle zone, he’s also the first to have his face on a coin to honor the momentous occasion.

So, what is Colbert’s Iraqi Coin Toss? For starters, it’s not a coin toss in the traditional sense. Rather, it’s a Twitter challenge wherein we’ll toss the coin to the winner. Wordplay!

All you have to do is be the world’s biggest Colbert super-fan and able to demonstrate that in under 140 characters. Tweet your entries with the tag #colbertcoin any time between now and 11:59pm, June 22, and we’ll announce the winner on or after June 25.

Read the details and official rules here

ETA: If you do tweet, tell us what you said.
And h/t to Roland, once again, for the original heads up on this.
