As I posted in my events, NAKA Entertainment competed in the WAMO 106 & Pittsburgh Step and Dance Competition on April 3, 2009. They were announced the winners and the prize, according to WAMO, was to be $1000, and six tickets to 106 and Park in New York. (see link http://www.wamo.com/pages/pages.php?page=69)
Since Monday, April 6, I have been unsuccessful in collecting the winnings from the station, but very successful in being jerked around.
I have sent emails, made phone calls, and went in person on Monday, April 20, to the station to collect a "Prize Packet" that was supposed to have been left there for me by Jamal Woodson on Friday, April 17.
After waiting for over 35 minutes, the receptionist informed me that Mr. Woodson, who I had seen running around the building, but did not acknowledge me at all, did not in fact have the prize packet ready and that he would be in contact.
Needless to say, I have not received the prize, nor have I heard from anyone at WAMO regarding the winnings for the group.
I'll keep you posted as to how this story ends.

UPDATE- It is Sunday, May 17, and I have not received any money or any word from WAMO about when or if they are going to pay the money. The news that they have been sold is also disturbing. Who pays the debts once WAMO no longer exists in Pittsburgh?
