    Does anyone remember the sight of the pull through where folks gathered around the fire the evening before or the evening after the NCBB 2016 where Scott pulled in his Winne?

    Not the number but it's on the corner by the cabins if you have a map. I don't have access to one. @Thatgrimguy would know.

    Yeah, I am looking at the map, thinking it was #41 or #42. Going to try to get as close to those as I can. Thinking we might try to tent it up.

    Hope you are not referencing the ol Kentucky tent.....you guys sure had you challenges with that. I remember the site well. No help on the number though.

    Yeah, there is a picture of that thing upside-down and backwards, with a bunch of us working on it. I forget who brought that bad boy, but once we figured the canopy goes fabric side up, it turned out pretty ok. Not our greatest moment, for sure.
    We have another tent we like to use when car camping (Glamping as My Beautiful Wife likes to call it).
    Did you ever get the agreement from Brent to buy you the Tito's? Your point spread request can't be considered gambling. Just sayin', you are a sly one indeed.

    We rented a cabin last year away from the park, on the lake about 20 minutes away. It was nice, but it was definitely more fun in the campground. Park closing at 8, and then driving back was not a lot of fun. This year we will be in the park for the duration. If it is half as fun as it was last year, it will be totally worth it. Looking forward to it.

    Ron,  you should invite some of those petite neighbors that devour ribs at lighting speed.

    Not going to happen. They eat too much, and there will be little left for me.

    I did indeed.   I had to leave before he got to it Sat. night and ended up missing it.  I won't make that mistake again.

    I missed the pit beef also. Had it at BCII and it was fantastic!

    There was a moment at BCII where I was eating Dylan's pit beef on that freshly-baked bread, and drinking @nolabrew's homebrew that was just absolutely friggin perfect.  Doesn't get any better.

    Any chance for an exhibition by the Wing Masters at the NC2B '17?
    Not a competition, per say, buy maybe a chance for a couple of guys to get their BGE cred back? Or is this done only as an invitational tournament, once a year?

    Maybe let the reigning champ judge all those who did not win the inaugural event?
