if you get the gig then let us know - - - that would even be worth the 40 minute drive up I-45 to shake yours and Swap'Donk's hands :tup:

When signing up to judge, they asked a question I've never been asked in all of the years I have judged -- How many events have you judged?

I'll have to ask Ben about that. They may try to give preference to seasoned judges. I'm not sure though.

Hate that you'll miss it. It's the same weekend as HLSR every year, and the organizers don't want to change it. It's a pretty cool event. Teams come from all over the place, even Japan.

Look forward to meeting you too. Other than dressing the boxes up, which I've figured out how to do, I love the KCBS format. 30 minute turn ins really keep you on top of your game. Awards are super fast too.
