Arthur, Illinois Cookoff
 

Any of you guys going?
I could use a runner.

DR Ray,
If I could afford a plane ticket--I would be there in a heartbeat.
Even do the dishwasher Mod http://bbq-brethren.com/forum/images...on_biggrin.gif

But, ROF (Retired Old Fart) on a fixed income--sorry http://bbq-brethren.com/forum/images/smilies/frown.gif

Good luck on the event.

I would likewise jump at the chance to be there to help, watch and learn but when I asked my wife, she said no. Gotta stay home one weekend and see my daughter play soccer. But if you're competing anywhere else within a few hours of KC and need someone for a runner or gopher, keep me in mind.

I asked the better half but was rejected due to budget.......:wink:

Man, having a real life must suck. Anyone else?

Yep, real life, jobs, no sponsors...:biggrin: That really get's in the way of my que habit! :rolleyes:


Have a good outing! We'll see you in a few weeks at Key Largo.

Wish I could, Ray. Way to busy mod going on.

Dang! I just made plans to visit my parents for the weekend! Of course, I don't run, I waddle... :rolleyes:

William "The Refridgerator" Perry mod... :-D

He did not go fast, but he did hit with some force. Just ask that poor linebacker that the put on his arse while scoring a touchdown. I think that was on the Monday Night game. What a riot. That was when football was fun. Now it is stunk up by overpaid, egotistical maniacs. IMHO.

Back on topic: Hope you find a runner DR.BBQ. It would be great if one of the brethren could step up to the plate.

The funny thing it seems that everyone who lives too far and can not clear the time or the funds to make the trip would love to do it. Wife started talking about saving money when I mentioned getting some ribs, so I know a plane ticket is not even worth bringing up.

I just took a look at the website for this event.

WOW!

Second year--and looking at a cap of 56 teams and a qualifier!
"Downtown" venue in a small town.

Either gonna be a mess, or a great weekend :grin:
My money says they will do fine!

Damn!! I will be selling my wares at the pumpkin festival all weekend. Doc, you will be only 5 hours from me. I would have been honored to be your runner!!! Maybe next time!!!

You guys are puss's.
I hope they have an escort service in Arthur so I can get some decent help.
