Stats and Stories recently marked its 250th episode with a contest. We asked you to share with us(via Twitter or email) a stat-related story with a headline you didn’t like and then a new headline that you thought was better. We had a number of great entries, including another stats haiku, but there can be only one winner and they’re joining us on this episode of Stats and Short Stories with Dan Gaichas.

Gaichasalso known as @StatManDan on Twitter. Gaichas is an institutional researcher and also our contest winner with a submission sent out the day our contest launched. He’ll get a signed copy of my and John’s book Statistics Behind the Headlines as well as some Stats + Stories swag.
