A sign the end is near: It’s time to play #CateSineDie
This year's traditional Sine Die celebration is canceled amid coronavirus precautions.

The end of the 2017 Session is quickly approaching, and that can only mean one thing: It’s time to get your bets in.

Yep, it’s time for #CateSineDie.

Here’s how Kevin Cate, the media guru for which the annual parlor game is name after, put it Wednesday morning:

“I love traditions and this is one of my favorites.

The 2017 Florida Legislative Session is winding down. The last day is scheduled for May 5th, but anything can happen between now and then — and it changes by the minute.

So it’s time for us to act like we know what’s up and play #CateSineDie!

The rules are simple and, like all good ideas, stolen from Bob Barker.

Tweet #CateSineDie along with your prediction for the exact date and time the hanky will drop, ending the 2017 Regular Legislative Session — closest without going over wins.”

All entries must be tweeted by 4 p.m. Thursday.

Cate swears he isn’t sending an email reminder, so get your prediction in now before you forget. Like last year, the winner will get $500 to their favorite charity. And this year, Cate upped the ante — adding “something even more silly — a trophy.”
