    Do they already know who is going to win the contest?

    This $300 million prize idea is so incredibly stupid it begs for some underlying conspiracy theory to justify it. Maybe they know the idea won't see the light of day due to upcoming plans and this is to compensate a friend? Maybe just payback for some favor in the past? Maybe it is just a nice big number to dazzle the masses with? I know these sound crazy but this idea is just do damn dumb, you gotta wonder.
