Just got back from cleaning up the grounds, and finally able to get back to the computer.
Muzzlebrake - thanks for your faithful posting of contest results.

The weekend was so much fun - hosting a bunch of great teams plus all the other activities that go with our weekend. Just wish there was more time to spend with each of you.

So congrats to Tippi. This was our 6th year as a contest, and Tippi has won 3 times!
How often does that happen?? I just know it is no fluke - he is a top quality proven winner.

But just look at the list above. We were loaded with top quality teams. What an honor that they choose to come to our contest.

In addition to our cash prize, Tippi wins a free entry into the World BBQ championship in Laughlin NV this Nov. plus a free hotel room while he is there. That is a $100,000 contest with the winner getting a new truck!

Anybody else think Joe has a real good chance at a contest like this??

Congrats to everybody who walked and heard their names, even though a rain storm rudely interrupted awards and made us rush thru the presentations.

Big shout out to Hogline on 4th overall - how exciting for this new and up a coming team and the only Minnesota team in the top 13. Way to go Dustin and company!!

Yes, the other 12 of the top 13 were Iowa teams. Might as well say it myself, some one was going to mention it anyway.

Got to spend a bit of time with Jeff, Derek, and Ted from Shiggin and Grinnin - always a treat.

Also had a nice visit with Ryan, Justin, Joe and Scott who stayed over after awards. Great to see all of you again. You all add quality to any contest they are in.

Always great to have a visit with the Rookie 48. Thanks for coming.

We had at least a half dozen judges came early with their campers and made a weekend of it. That was great.

Again, thanks to everyone for coming and helping us be the strong contest that we are.
