You made the class by keeping it light and interesting. Your "chicken" comment was classic, and I think most of us really had a good time. Thank you for putting out the effort to both inform us and share your perspective on the sport.
I don't know if those guys do that, but I do know of at least one other very successful team here in the KC area that does. As long as the person judging is out of the cook site before midnight, it's perfectly legal.
