987 The Big Boy is going Off the Rails, and you could win a brand-new John Deere S100 riding lawn tractor. We’re firing it up and driving it down Highway 30 from Sidney to Chappell until it runs out of gas.

Think you know how far it’ll go on one tank? Make your guess and you could take the mower home.

Register now at these locations before May 20th.
