We had a riot with that one. Ned had weighed in first, going over the charts by 70 pounds, then when mine was heading to the scales, I didnt think I had a chance. I asked Ned what he thought mine was going to weigh, he said 802.5, yankin my chain about losing by half pound. When they read that it weighed 803, we just busted a gut. I was upset (joking) they brushed dirt off the scales when mine was put on it to be weighed, probably cost me, haahaaa.. Ned, Andy, Dana, and I had great time over the last two weeks together. We formed a pretty good bond, and definitely an awesome competition for next year!

To make things even more interesting of a tie, go through Neds Diary, and mine, and there was some heckling back and forth all year long about the 805's. Mine was all shoulders, his was all butt, just like Ned. **Gotcha Ned!

Now can I have one of those "Gin"ger ALes?
