So if I'm reading this correctly, the total prize fund is $5,000, the entry fee is $375 and then there is another $400 "vending fee" so that teams can serve 3 oz. samples and, if past history is any indication of present intentions, teams will be required to vend as a condition of entry.
That would mean that a $775 investment for a $5,000 contest held over a two day period and teams will not be allowed to depart the venue until after 2:00am on Monday morning.
Under these conditions, ours will not be among the teams on the field that day.
Best of luck to those that are.
