Calling all bong-rippers: Mike Skinner of The Streets is holding a “bong-making” contest on the last stops on his tour. One lucky winner (stoner, engineer, Nintendo Wiid player – same thing) will receive a drum cymbal signed by Skinner and two VIP passes for his August 26 gig at the aptly-titled Get Loaded in the Park festival.

The winner will also share the stage with the U.K. MC during his set-closer, “The Irony of It All” – a song dedicated to the wonders of weed – to smoke up with him using the homemade bong. He better be the one supplying the sweet smoke…scruffy little scrounger.

Hopeful weedsmiths must e-mail loadedbong@hotmail.com with either a picture or drawing of the cannibis-contraption and provide a detailed description on how it works. (I’m guessing a 1:1 ratio of descriptions being, “You just pull it, d00d! Pack it and pull it. LOLZ.”) Skinner will personally announce the winner on August 23 via his MySpace blog.

Some helpful hints on constructing your ganja-gobbler can be found all over the web, with a makeshift gravity bong and a light-bulb bong being a few favorites.

All entries are due by August 22; most stoners will read this two days too late, take a toke from Bong Jovi and forget everything I said. Congrats?
