  • Win a bourbon set signed by Jim Gaffigan by playing Whiskey Wednesday Round 17

    Win a bourbon set signed by Jim Gaffigan by playing Whiskey Wednesday Round 17

    Whiskey Wednesday Round 17 just got a lot more interesting! Now through Dec. 17, your weekly tickets not only give you the chance to win some rare Pappy prizes, but also an exclusive bourbon set hand-selected and signed by comedian Jim Gaffigan. 

    This one-of-a-kind collection features a full vertical of single barrel selections chosen personally by Jim, complete with commemorative decals and his signature. The lineup includes: 

    • Old Forester (128.8 proof)
    • Bardstown Bourbon Company Single Barrel Finished Rye (124.8 proof) 
    • Nashville Barrel Company Bourbon (120.2 proof)
    • Buzzard’s Roost Toasted Single Barrel (112.2 proof) 
    • Peerless Kentucky Straight Bourbon (113.3 proof)

    In addition to this completely unreleased set of bottles, Jim has included one of his own personal bottles of Fathertime Middle Child Mystery: Empty Nester Strength (121.4 proof). Plus, the prize package will also include four tickets to see an upcoming Jim Gaffigan show, including a meet and greet with Jim, to be redeemed at a mutually agreed-upon location in the next calendar year, along with a signed and framed show poster.

    We at Give 270 are fortunate to be one of just six nonprofits selected to receive this vertical in support of our fundraising efforts. 

    The collection correlates with an upcoming bourbon-focused standup comedy special, which was performed by Jim in Louisville last month. We were fortunate enough to attend the filming of the special, and trust us, this set will have any bourbon lover in stitches. 

    In addition to being a renowned standup comedian and actor, Jim has ventured into the world of bourbon, co-founding Fathertime Bourbon with his business partner Stu Pollard. Their upcoming releases from the Precious Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey line — Fourth & Long and Empty Nester (Cask Strength) — are Kentucky-distilled, hand-selected by the two co-founders, bottled in Bardstown, and personally signed by Jim. Learn more at fathertime-bourbon.com. 

    For your chance to win this incredible prize package, just keep buying your Whiskey Wednesdays Round 17 Pappy Palooza tickets. And remember, all proceeds from this round will go toward CASA of the Heartland in its work to provide support and advocacy services to children of abuse and neglect in five central Kentucky counties.

    We’re incredibly grateful to Jim and Stu at Fathertime Bourbon for making this remarkable prize possible, and to you, our weekly players, who continue to help us support our worthwhile community organizations and initiatives. 

    Be sure to purchase your Round 17 tickets today!
