Who’s agitating my dots?  I know the obsession you all have with Pac-Dots, power pellets and ghosts.  That’s why you’re all fine tuning those Pac-Man skills in preparation for the Pac-Man World Championships right?  If the one thing you’re missing is the actual Pac-Man game to play then I have you covered.  I’m going to sponsor 5 of you by giving out that same number of Pac-Man redeem codes to download the full version from the Xbox Live Arcade! 

Are you game to enter the Pac-Man Championships and make Deacon proud by bringing home the win? (or at least giving it a shot)  Five (5) of you will have the opportunity to do just that.  It’s all for fun so get your pellet-crunching power up.

Sponsor me Deacon!  I’ll bring home the win.  What do I do?

If you’re a Pac-Maniac, simply send me a message on Xbox.com or Xbox Live with “Pac-Maniac”.  I’ll send the codes out to the lucky five tonight!
