KSAN-FM/107.7 The Bone reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine the time within each hour that the name will be announced. Each contestant whose name is announced on KSAN-FM/107.7 The Bone will have (10) minutes from the time of the first announcement of their name to call 1-888-303-BONE (2663) and be placed "on the Bonehead Workforce clock." Once placed "on the clock," the contestant begins "earning" or winning $100.00 per each full hour that he/she is on the clock until he/she is replaced by another winner who hears their name announced on KSAN-FM/107.7 The Bone and contacts KSAN-FM/107.7 within ten (10) minutes from the announcement or the contest ends. Calls to any other KSAN-FM/107.7 The Bone phone number will not be accepted.

(iii) Winners will be placed on a weekly random drawing to be held on selected Fridays for the awarding of diverse prizes. The specific prize for a selected Friday will be announced by KSAN-FM/107.7 The Bone on air during the week preceding that Friday. The name of each random drawing winner will be announced Fridays anytime during the 5:00pm hour during the five weeks of this promotion.
(iv) In the event two (2) or more individuals with the same name call in, only the individual who can be verified by a home address which identically matches the information on the randomly drawn entry shall be declared a winner and placed "on the clock."
(v) Station will also award a "tank of gas" ($50.00) randomly as a bonus to one lucky person per day. A designated sound effect will be played at random once per day and if that person whose name is announced that hour calls back, he/she wins the bonus. If he/she does not call back, the person from the hour before will get the bonus. The exception to this is if the person from the hour before has already won a "tank of gas" from the day before. Only one "tank of gas" per person. The "tank of gas" bonus will be in the form of an extra $50.00 added to the total "earnings."
(vi) If, by reason of error, more prizes are claimed than the number set forth in these rules, all persons making purportedly valid claims will be included in a random drawing to award the advertised number of prizes. No more than the advertised number of prizes will be awarded.
(vii) Each eligible winner during the Bonehead Workforce contest will be qualified as an official finalist to participate in the grand prize Dice Roll contest (see below) for the chance to win the Dice Roll Grand Prize.

Each selected finalist must be present at the date, time and location as specified by sponsor to participate in the grand prize contest (scheduled for 6/28/08 at a location to be determined and announced in the San Francisco, CA metro area). Selected finalists will be notified of the contest time and location. Any finalist who fails to appear by the required deadline will be disqualified. Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to change the date, time or location of the grand prize contest. Selected finalists will be notified of any changes. Only the finalists selected and notified by sponsor will be eligible to participate. All other entrants are ineligible. Finalist selection and participation is non-transferable. No other individual may participate on behalf of a selected finalist. Difficulties with getting to location to enter or participate in the contest are not the responsibility of KSAN 107.7 and its sponsors.
In order for a dice roll contest grand prize to be awarded, an eligible finalist must print and sign their full name on the first unoccupied line of the provided official finalist registration form prior to their dice roll attempt. Each finalist will receive a maximum of two (2) dice roll contest attempts. Finalists will roll in the order as solely determined by sponsor. In order to claim the grand prize, an eligible finalist must roll all 6 dice provided by Sponsor and have each die come to rest with the predetermined winning side face up, on a single roll attempt. (Finalists may not combine letters from individual roll attempts.) The winning symbols for this contest are: C-A-R-G-A-S.
Eligible dice roll attempt requirements include:
- All dice roll attempts must occur in the presence of the contest administrators, and must be recorded on video tape in its entirety. Any dice roll attempt not in the presence of the contest administrator, or that is not video taped for any reason will be disqualified and is not eligible for the grand prize;
- Contestants will not be permitted to take any practice or warm-up tosses prior to their attempt. Once a die has been rolled, their attempt is considered to be started.
- Each eligible contestant must roll all 6 dice all at one time. Contestants may not attempt to change the outcome of any rolled die, by hitting the die with a subsequent roll attempt;
- Each die must be tossed in a completely random manner that does not allow the contestant to “set” or “slide” the dice, alter or influence the random outcome of the roll;
- Each die must be rolled a minimum of 2-feet in distance from the contestant, in order to prevent the contestant from altering, affecting, influencing, or enhancing the random outcome of any roll. The contest administrator will designate the demarcation line that each die must cross during the roll;
- All dice must come to rest lying flat;
- All dice must land on and remain on the designated dice rolling surface;
- No rolled die may come in contact with any person or object other than the designated rolling surfaces or walls.
- If any die comes in contact with another person or object (other than the dice roll surface or designated walls or backstop) for any reason; or if any person or object in any way interferes, alters, changes, influences or affects the random outcome of the roll, then the entire attempt is disqualified and the contestant may not receive another attempt.
The following will result in the contestant being required to re-roll their entire dice roll attempt:
If any of the following outcomes occur, that dice roll attempt is disqualified and the contestant will be granted a maximum of one re-roll attempt (the contestant must re-roll all 6 dice):
- If the contest administrator deems that any die has failed to cross the dice roll demarcation line;
- If any die is leaning in any manner;
- If any die leaves the designated dice roll playing surface;
- If any contestant inadvertently drops a die as they are preparing to roll, and the dropped die does not meet the eligible dice roll requirements as stated in the contest rules.
In all circumstances, an eligible contestant may have a maximum of one re-roll attempt. In the event of a second ineligible dice roll, their entire dice roll attempt will be disqualified and the contestant will not be eligible for any prize claim regardless of the outcome of their roll.

In the event of multiple grand prize winning dice roll attempts, the cash value of the grand prize will be evenly split among all eligible grand prize winning finalists. In the event there is no eligible finalist who successfully completes the grand prize winning dice roll requirements according to these official rules, then the dice roll grand prize will not be awarded.
Dice Roll Contest Event – Bonus Prize:
In the event that there is no eligible finalist who successfully completes the grand prize dice roll contest requirements, then the sponsor shall award the eligible finalist who has successfully rolled the most winning letters during a single attempt on one of their dice roll contest attempts a bonus prize, subject to verification and compliance with these Official Rules. The dice roll bonus prize award is as follows: 1-Year of Free Gas, awarded in the form of gas card with a maximum value of $2,500 (based upon an approximate calculation of $48 per week x 52 weeks).
A maximum (1) dice roll bonus prize will be awarded. In the event of any tie among eligible finalists at the conclusion of the dice roll contest (i.e. each contestant has rolled the same number of winning letters), then Sponsor shall conduct a 'Roll-Off' among the tied contestants. Each tied contestant shall receive one (1) additional roll of the dice. The contestant who rolls the most winning letters during the 'Roll Off' will be declared the bonus prize winner. In the event of a remaining tie after the first Roll-Off attempt, the process will continue until there is only one contestant remaining who will be declared the bonus prize winner. NOTE: The grand prize will not be awarded for any contestant who rolls all 6-dice face-up during a bonus prize Roll-Off contest attempt.
