Good Luck everyone! Looks like my 11 year run is coming to end. A bunch of new teams will be coming out of New England and I know will represent well.

That sucks. Sorry to hear that Chris.

What day is the draw, so I can sit in front of my computer all day and stare at the screen while repeatedly pressing F5? :wacko:

What about the Sam's Club comps? Are they qualifiers is the state has a blanket proclamation?
 
Clarifications

Massachusetts
Greeenfield - Smokin' Hoggs
Harvard - 3 Eyz
Lexington - Fatback Joes

Harvard is out due to 3 Eyz 7ing. According to what I have previously read, a contest is considered "established" after the 1st year and needs 25 teams to qualify. Greenfield had 19. Therefore I believe Fatback Joes autos for Massachusetts.

New York
That being the case, then they are out of the NY draw. In addition, 1 bung is also removed for Good Smoke at the established contest at Brockport BBQ - Music Festival only had 17 teams.

If I am wrong, please let me know.

Also, who is Fah-Que and what event did they win in NY?

Ah, a Brethren event which explains why they aren't on bbqrace.com or KCBS.

Do you think The Jack will let them use that name? If they do, you might see a lot more:

Mother Forkers
Forking Athols (from Athol, MA, of course)
 
I think we are being punked. Don't see them on bbqrace.com and there is no winner by that name on kcbs.us. KCBS allows a lot of latitude in team names, but I would be surprised if they let that one slide. If they do, you might see a lot more:

Mother Forkers
Forking Athols (from Athol, MA, of course)

no punking or punkins here:wink:
I believe it was Matt from Jacked up, sled and 2 others that I dont know. Williepalooza was not a KCBS contest but did have a NYS proclamation.
as far as the name...no comment.... awards were ...:wacko: mmmm no comment
 
  • Thanks
Reactions: CBQ
I don't think regionals fall into that category, Ron. They are considered invitationals.
 
MICHIGAN

Silver Lake Apple and BBQ Festival -- Big Brothers BBQ
Auburn Hills -- Smokin Aces Crapshoot BBQ
Taste Of Grand Rapids -- Bavarian Smoke BBQ
Dam Good BBQ -- 8/10 - 8/11
Blues, Brews, & Barbecue -- 8/23 - 8/24


Michigan does not have a blanket proclamation. So the local Sam's would not count.

Silver Lake as well from last September

That's what I understand as well. Unfortunately the GC of our local Sam's Club event will not get a bung...no blanket Gov. Proclamation. At least I don't remember there being one for the event.
 
How about any state rep teams or does that not come into play until after the bungs are picked?
