Well, the 2008 map is not available. Woodfellas are in spot 917.

That map's all F'd up. We don't even exist on it.
Likewise, our assigned space 749 (where we've been the last 3 yrs.) is not on the map,,,,,,,,
Do they have a team list? to go with that map?
I can't get the map to download....is my spot where it's always been? I'm assuming it is. 769 is the number.
Guess there are changes/corrections coming to the map, here is a post on another forum to me addressing my post;
"Greg,
The final revision of the map has not been completed. There are a number of other details that need to be worked out. Your entire row has the incorrect numbers assigned to the spaces. Your space number IS 749 and is located where the map indicates 751.

All I have to do is sit back and laugh...
Enjoy the circus guys. I can honestly say I do not miss any of this.
the sooner that they take the BBQ teams serious, the better off the Royal will be.

Now, why would you say something like that to your peers/friends? Granted there are some issues, just like any other bbq contest, but, why don't you try not being so callous? It's an issue with a map, the contest is a month away, the map is getting revised...period. To err is human.
Although this is only our 4th Royal, I have always considered it an opportunity to compete against some of the very best teams from coast to coast and border to border. It is a contest that I look forward to seeing friends like Scottie and many others, that I may only get to see once a year. We've always had a great time, had no major issues, and really enjoyed the long weekend.
Scottie, I know you're really sore about last year, but personally I think the Royal staff does a great job running a 500 team contest.
