Let's humour this spammer for a minute.There has to be a catch, because no-one gives away $500 for nothing in return...
(Deliberately no spoilers.)

First question :

[MNOWAX]

Washington redskins has the best chance for a pro ticket in football(biggest stadium by seats) Could be talking about the Detroit lions, too (since their season was so horrible, their ticket prices must have dropped)
thats all Ive got

Ok... though I'd assume no-one here is instantly going to befriend you with an intro like that. (Not that you'd care)
I guess this is like RiddlePlanet/HTPo etc, with a prize funded by Google ads on each page. No harm in that...

How many questions in the comp? (Just so I can be sure you don't keep adding some in some con-artist type way..)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back to the 'riddle' -
According to wiki, Beaver Stadium wins in capacity...

Slop/Rockets probably a reference to Bart Strik, who played with the "Explosion Rockets", who played "Slop" music..

BartBeaver is not the answer...

About the football stadium:

Fawcett Stadium in Canton, OH is used for the football HOF game every year, other than that high schools and colleges use the field. If the HOF game is enough to qualify it as a professional stadium, it might be the easiest stadium to get tickets, at least for the other games in the year that are played there.

The prize total may go up or down depending on how much money advertisers pay. ?!?!?

You can't do that! That completely contradicts the stated rules, and yourself:

#1: "If you solve the puzzle, you will win a $500 check."
#4: "There is no catch. Follow the clues and the money will be paid."

Besides that, on the webpage, the big green logo says "$500 cash", but the rules say "check". I have a US address, but a 'check' is no use to me. I'd take a Paypal payment - is that on offer?

[Scurra]

I think he means that future prize money may go up or down depending upon this one.

It looks like you will need to find a number of hidden clues within Fantasy Sports Portal before you are done (probably just spoilered, but maybe you need to scan the HTML). The site looks huge, so unless you are going to be walking through it anyway, I can't see it being worth the effort.

Which is probably their hook in the first place -- they are assuming that the demographic interested in solving puzzles will also be interested in their product. It is a lot less obnoxious than a lot of forms of advertising, but I don't think I'll be participating.

PuzzleScot, if you win, I'm sure you can get one of us to accept the check on your behalf and PayPal you the money. I'd be glad to do it. Or I'll vouch for Pablo, who gave an honest accounting and paid up on the bet he and I had about his Scrabble games.

Thanks for the offer Zag

However, I can't imagine getting to the end of this by myself. Besides, it's not hard to think of better uses of my time.

so, here's a thought. If we as a group can win this, we can use it for future contest prizes...


PS. I still have an uncashed cheque from Nathan Hasselbauer (IHIQS) on my office wall
