Trying to decide if I'm going to head down Saturday or not. I try to avoid daytime trips on the weekend, it's such a zoo.

Any idea what ended up taking cat 23?

Good work guys! Lots of BN wins today! Heard a bunch of anti-BN smack talk too but let the haters hate!

Had to go in to work this morning, so couldn't make it. Hoped to watch the Google Hangout that they were going to have, but that seems to have fallen through.
Congrats BNers!

I couldn't make it today...any idea when they will post up the winners?

[Stinkfist]

Sweet I found someone that posted up a picture of the list of winners...I entered 3 Beers and took 2 Golds! not too bad

They said they submit the .pdf to the fair people and then the website gets updated. Probably won't happen until tomorrow.
