Lucky Day

By John Arndt | October 2, 2017 | Alameda, CA |

After Jim Stitt picked up his monthly issue of Latitude 38 at Grand Marina in Alameda, he realized it was his lucky day. How come? As Jim was flipping though Latitude’s pages, a flyer fell out, announcing that it was in fact, "Your Lucky Day." Jim had won a Latitude 38 t-shirt or hat by serendipitously grabbing one of the ‘Golden Ticket’ issues and snapping a photo of himself.

If you’re flying Southwest Airlines, have a look in the cockpit to see if the pilot is wearing a Latitude 38 t-shirt.

Jim sent a note saying, "Thank you in advance for the T-shirt, large please. Also, thanks for the great magazine I pick up every month at Grand Marina. I hope all is well with you. Your favorite Southwest Airline Pilot."

Is it your lucky day? The October issue of Latitude 38 has just been distributed up and down the coast of California, and inside a couple are more ‘Lucky Day’ notes. So pick up a copy for more than just the great stories, because there might just be another bonus inside. Shirt or hat for you?
