Yes we did it, new toy Kathy was nice enough to let me buy. DJI Phantom.
Can I assume we will have flight clearance at your contest? :-)

How about servicing the porta pots once? They were pretty nasty by Saturday; better yet, how about a couple of those trailer portable restrooms, at least for the ladies?

... but it's the Sam's Club Crown Jewel event, they can do better.

My thoughts exactly on the whole Sam's Club Series. Yeah, I know, there is the potential to win a huge amount of money, but getting to the lucky 50 teams is a crap shoot, at least it has shown to be that in the southeast. I point to the example of "Table 1" in the pork category at the Hendersonville, TN Regional contest.

Doing one of these Sam's Club contests is kinda like shopping in a Wal-Mart. Not much there for folks who know there are other choices out there. They are the world's largest retailer and could definitely provide some classier infrastructure with portable trailer toilets/etc. And for goodness sake...it wouldn't cost THAT much to run some 1" PEX piping from a metered fire hydrant or the hose spigot at the tire center. We've had this discussion before on this site and many think otherwise...

I'm glad to see one mega corp get involved with Competition BBQ. I can't believe another one or 10 haven't jumped in yet. They will. It's coming. It's just that it is really cheap to do so now. When the other big players get here, it won't be so inexpensive for them to get in...

Yeah, I think everyone that didn't win should bitch until no company invests big bucks in Bbq. Pull up your big girl panties and stop polluting this thread.

This thread is about the winners. Good job guys!

I wasn't bitching. Just stating some facts and opinions of the Sam's-backed contests versus other contests put on by other (less-funded) organizers.

The Sam's Club local contest in Marietta, GA has never filled the 30-team max roster in any of it's 3 contests. It's a $10,000 contest in an area where there's about 10 BBQ teams that reside in the county that the contest is in. That's 1/3 of the field, yet many of those 10 or so teams chose to compete in another contest in the Atlanta Metro area that weekend.

Should WM move the Marietta, GA Contest to another store? Possibly. I don't care.


And yes, a big congrats to Jim and Jan Burg for bringing home that $50k+ in prize money to Georgia.

I have done 7 of these things now, and I like them and will be back if they continue to offer it. It's not assured, Wal Mart will assess it year by year.

If I recall correctly the initial Sam's deal with MMA/KCBS was for 3 years so this would be the renewal year. We'll do it again if the local and regionals are fairly close. I'd like to see them move the final to the Betonville Sam's so I can have my lucky 9am Sam's hot dog
