Petey's favorite holiday movie is Love Actually and it inspired him to offer up the "Billy Mack" challenge. If we win Best of the Bay (3 Pete) he oddly offered to sing his favorite Run Fest song wearing only his beak... not sure anyone wants to see that but we are supporting his wishes. Voting ends Aug 31st.
