Burn Island Eruption 12 - Pies Bake Best in Silver (June) Ovens

During the BOOK GAMES launch, GaryVee's curiosity-inducing comment, "pies bake best in silver ovens," piqued interest, setting the stage for Burn Island Eruption 12. This Eruption offered participants an opportunity to secure a brand-new June Oven Plus, a high-tech kitchen appliance known for its culinary innovation, and valued at $999.

Eruption 12 followed a first-come-first-serve format with a limit of 15 participants. This Eruption opened at 12PM ET on Thursday 11/9, and may have been one of the quickest eruptions to date. Within a matter of minutes, the Ovens had been claimed and the Eruption concluded.
