OK, so I don't mean to be a downer on the 4th of July, but let's see:



The National Championships are being held in Hobbs, NM.



The last day of Nats has to be scrubbed because the city of Hobbs is telling people to go watch the local fireworks from the airport runway, starting midafternoon.



Hobbs, NM is the HQ of the SSA



So our NATIONAL organization can't even coordinate with their own "home town" to organize our NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS?



I feel badly for the contest staff who are no doubt working their asses off; but I'm shaking my head in disbelief. What the HELL, SSA?

Siding with QT on this one. Come on Noel you are aware of all the pieces of the puzzle for a contest to be successful.

This type of posting I would expect from Sean, not you.
