How bright can this guy be?

But this weekend's results are a blow to southern pride.
Only one of the top 10 overall finishers come from below the Mason Dixon line (Virginia).
It's not like we didn't have competitors.
They came from Tennessee (2), Georgia (3), Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas & Louisiana.
But when it came to the best of the best in Lynchburg, a steakhouse in Kansas claimed the top prize.


Overall
1.4 Legs Up BBQ – Great Bend, Kan.
2.4 Mile Smokin’ Crew – Pleasant Hill, Iowa
3.Cool Smoke – Richmond, Va.
4.Butcher BBQ – Chandler, Okla.
5.lunchmeat – Rockland, Mass.
6.Smokers Wild – Paola, Kan.
7.Parrothead Smokers – Dakota Dunes, S.D.
8.Dizzy Pig – Fairfax, Va.
9.Bubba & Jeff’s BBQ – Lees Summit, Mo.
10. Carcass Cookers –Pueblo, Colo.


Geez, have an other shot there Mr. writer. I guess if you are from Fairfax, VA you are a northener!

I believe the Mason-Dixon line is between Maryland and Pennsylvinna, but maybe I have forgotten my History.
 
Sour grapes. Those from the north should take that as a compliment. Keep in mind, my opinion isn't worth much - it's only an opinion from someone located in the 4th great school of Q. (In which I would consider 4 of the top 10 Jack finishers to be from, yes, I'm including 4 Mile Fred, he's closer to KC then Great Bend)

MO was Confederate state and thus symbolically below the Mason Dixon line.
 
Technically Missouri was a border/dual government state: (that said, I agree that it's culture is more representitive of Southern culture compared to Northern)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missouri_in_the_American_Civil_War
Missouri in the Civil War was a border state that sent men, generals, and supplies to both opposing sides, had its star on both flags, had state governments representing each side, and endured a neighbor-against-neighbor intrastate war within the larger national war.
By the end of the Civil War, Missouri had supplied nearly 110,000 troops for the Union Army and about 40,000 troops for the Confederate Army. There were battles and skirmishes in all areas of the state, from the Iowa and Illinois border in the northeast to the edge of the state in the southeast and southwest on the Arkansas border. Counting minor engagements, actions and skirmishes, Missouri saw over 1,200 distinct fights. Only Virginia and Tennessee exceeded Missouri in the number of clashes within the state boundaries.
The biggest battle in the war west of the Mississippi River was the Battle of Westport at Kansas City in 1864.
 
Hey, Podge!

The way you are getting upset over this, it's a good thing you've got the "invisible fence" to hold you back!!:biggrin:

And if you want to get technically technical...:lol:
The OFFICIAL Missouri government was pro-South, but was ruled to be
illegal by the U. S. government, which implanted it's own rulership in Missouri when they voted to join the South. NTTAWWT:mrgreen:
 
Hey cut the guy some slack; he must know good que. He's from Sieverville, TN and they have a Famous Dave's BBQ there.
 
Good thing he didn't try to offend us Northwest teams!! I'd probably agree with him! Dances with Smoke 6th Place Brisket was the only call we got.
 
Looks to me like he's either ignorant or just trying to be funny but failed to think about his potential reading audience. :icon_bugeyed
 
Mike, you DID NOT say Kentucky bourbon did you?!?!?!

Would have thought that you would at least drink some of our product from here in Lynchburg. We didn't convert you?:lol:
