Work Hard Play Hard Contest Winners from 2021

Last updated Tuesday, June 13th, 2023

Each year, the month of June is known as National Safety Month, sponsored annually by the National Safety Council. The goal for this month is to help reduce the leading causes of injury and death at work and in our communities. As a law firm that works on many workers’ compensation cases, we wanted to use this month to spread awareness about construction site hazards and how to make the workplace safer. As it turns out, our Work Hard Play Hard contest was the perfect way to do it.

The Contest

With teams in every professional sport, including two baseball teams, Chicago is a mecca for any sports fan. We decided to ask baseball fans “Which Team Works and Plays Harder… The White Sox or the Cubs?”… and give away a set of four tickets + a parking pass to one lucky entrant to see their favorite team in action.

In asking this question we were quickly reminded how passionate Chicagoans are about their baseball teams, as almost 1,200 people answered the question via our Facebook page, with hundreds more leaving additional comments on our page. It was a lively debate as to which team works and plays harder, with the Cubs getting 57% of the vote and the White Sox 43%.

Who Won The Grand Prize?

The big winner of this contest was Dana Buttacavoli of Chicago. We hooked this long-time White Sox fan and her family up with great seats to a White Sox home game on July 19th.
