It's VERY limited as to who can enter.
www.syfy.com/universe/sweepstakes/
The premiere of Stagate Universe is only weeks away, but we're giving New York residents the opportunity to see it in style at a special screening on October 2, 2009.
Enter the sweepstakes and you could win a seat at Planet Hollywood in New York City's Times Square and the chance to watch the premiere episode of Stargate Universe with series stars Lou Diamond Phillips and Ming-Na, as well as access to a limited autograph signing available to contest winners only.
Enter now— the gate closes on September 30, 2009
*OPEN ONLY to legal NEW YORK residents 18 years and older - rest of us are **** out of luck* - never seen a contest limited to just one state's residents before. Sorry, feel the urge to grumble as I'd kill (metamorphically, of course) to meet LDP

Heh...I know I am gonna get mauled here...but...
I live in Upstate New York and could enter it, but I probably won't. I won't have the time to be down in New York City that day. I am probably gonna be working, but heh. This sucks.
EDIT: I entered anyway. I never win anything, so I ain't gonna hold my breath if I'm gonna win or not.

Yeah, I'm near Albany. About 20 miles away from it, so we're talking about a 3 hour ride.

A convention in NYC? Bwahahaha! ;) Alas, most non-comic cons have pulled out. Creation abandoned the east coast :( However, maybe fans should work on naggnig SyFy to have a presence at the 2010 NYC COmic Con...

Sweeeet... I live on long island, so its a 30 min train ride on the LIRR for me to get to the city.
I entered, but even if I do win, I may not be able to go - depends on how hetic it is at work, since its the last day of the month last week, we have a lot of shipments that need to go out the door for the month, and thats my responsibility :( Hopefully everything will get done before Friday, so if I have to leave early to go to the city, I can.
Finally, a perk for living on long island lol

You have a two day tolerance for things that have to be done until the end of the month? That's pretty cool ;)
