Per the brickstreetbbq.com website, the sign up period has been extended to May 31st.
We are currently a few teams short of the minimum 25 teams requirement for a State Championship. If you are planning on signing up, please let the office know. And if you know a team that is on the fence, give them a push.
It takes 25 teams for the State Championship to count and it really takes 40 teams or so for the organization to be able to afford the $10,000 prize pool.
I expected the Sams Club events to bite into the local contests and this may be an example.
Without team participation to cover most of the prize pool, this event and others may see a decrease in prize pools.
