Eight qualifying Rude producers will take part in a random drawing, and the remainder of the prize money will be divided among the remaining seven contestants, as determined by the drawing.
“This is just the type of thing that makes Rude such an incredible community to be a part of," Rude.com Marketing Manager Chandie Foster said. “We are truly excited to make each and every one of these contestants a winner and hope that it brings a merrier holiday season to them all."
Live broadcast details have not been announced.
