I read that wrong at first, thus the title of this thread. I thought you had to be at this past year's Blade and also at Blade West this year (pretty stiff requirements for a contest, in retrospect).

Okay, if I'm that brain dead, I'm going to bed.

I have found hope! Thanks for the info!

i can't make it to blade show west, but i now know where it will be held in 08. time to make the travel arrangements

That would mean I'd have to fly to Portland to fly free to Atlanta. Interesting concept...

 

[Guyon]

Okay, I couldn't sleep.

So I've decided that you needed to be at Blade, Blade West, the Tony G/randucci dinner, the California Bay Area get together, AND the Big Chicken in order to enter this contest.

Oh, I WILL be there yes. My first Blade event!! I can hardly wait. I was close last year but a wedding got in the way.
Where is everybody staying? At the Portland Airport Hotel & Conference Center? Anybody know if there is an exhibitors list up yet?
