A $5,000 contest

Do you have a funny story about a noisy neighbor at a hotel? Then think about sending your story to AmericInn's "Your Noisy Neighbor" contest.

Submit either a 200-words-or-less story or a one minute-or-less video to the website YourNoisyNeighbor.com. One of the prizes is a $5,000 gift card, which you can spend on anything you like.
