Thanks to everyone for entering and then voting in our craziest travel stories contest. In the end, there was a breakout winner as the wildest tale of legal travel anyone heard.
Capturing 51 percent of the vote — enough to win any election anywhere except the U.S. presidency — the story of David Boies fighting a brutal snowstorm and limping home to Cravath in a wrecked rental car is our champion.
Take a second to consider that this story beat out actually traveling through a war zone.
Legal Is Changing. And NeoSummit Is Where The Future Is Being Built.
Legal and operational leaders are gathering May 6–7 in Fort Lauderdale to confront the questions the industry hasn't answered—with a keynote from Amanda Knox setting the tone.
In any event, congratulations to the winning pair of stories, and thanks to Blade for putting up the prize — a helicopter trip from midtown to JFK, so you can soar over the rush hour traffic on your way to your flight.
