Los Angeles Times Essay Flap's Plot Takes Strange Turn A Manhattan Beach homeowner offers his house as a prize. When the Canadian winner declines it, charges fly. And it's not over yet. By Bob Pool Times Staff Writer February 10, 2005 Photo: http://tinyurl.com/5zbsf Caption: Ben Waldrep with his house in 2000. A jury sided with entrants who claimed the contest was rigged. (Paul Morse / LAT) The most imaginative writer in town could not have penned the surprise ending to Ben Waldrep's "Why I Want to Live in Manhattan Beach, Calif." essay contest. First, the winner of the writing competition declined to claim the grand prize: Waldrep's ocean-view home. And then the contest's 1,812 losers won $1 million each. That is the unanticipated conclusion to a charity fundraising promotion hatched five years ago by a retired aerospace worker that is being played out in a Los Angeles courtroom. |
