And the Klipsch Image X10 headphones winner is ...

Congratulations, Jane Hudson — you’ve won yourself a pair of Klipsch headphones.

Last month, we asked travelers to share their tales about when they could have really benefited from a pair of award-winning Klipsch Image X10 headphones.

Although she had some serious competition, Hudson, of Connecticut, came through with what our judges thought was the most clever, compelling account.

Here’s her story:

GOWF. My oh-could-I-have-used-those-headphones story is all about GOWF. Well, that’s what it sounded like when theguy in the seat. across the aisle on the flight in from Hilton Head started talking. Bleating, actually, at the guy sitting right next to him. But anyone within a dozen rows could hear. "GOWF!" he said. "Ah love GOWF! Nothin’ like a beautiful day out playing GOWF. Ah grab mah GOWF clubs and head over to the GOWF course. Ah played yesterday. It was great, startin’ on the first hole with a 282-yard drive. It was a little to the left. … And on he continued, hole by hole, drive by drive, putt by putt until all 18 holes had been fully — and very loudly — chronicled.

Bennett Honson of Chicago was among the contenders. Here’s his tale:

"One and two and three and four," she chanted as she combined rapid hand clapping, knee slapping and finger snapping. My friend was practicing rhythm for a jazz guitar class during our three hour red-eye flight to San Francisco. The surrounding passengers glared and sighed conspicuously — unsure of what my friend was practicing but certain they didn’t like it. If the attendant hadn’t carefully instructed me to place my carry on baggage underneath the seat I would have immediately crawled there myself. If only I had had a pair of the world’s smallest, lightest and most comfortable headphones from Klipsch, I could have shut my eyes, claimed ignorance and traveled in peace.

Thanks to everyone for contributing.
