That was one of the first foods I saw. I meant to get it but never made it back over there.

My only complaint for BO was with the 2 day PassPork. When I arrived on Friday, an armband was placed on my wrist and I was told I had to keep it on through Saturday. It was kinda hard to not get drunk and rip it off Friday night but somehow I managed not to.

It was my understanding that upon entry Friday, I would just be handed the wristband to put on myself on Saturday. Was that not correct? Once I presented the actual PassPork ticket Friday I am not sure what point it was to have to wear a wristband that night.

Thanks for the feedback.

We instructed gate workers to put the bracelet on, pass out the $45 in Hoggy Dolalrs, and mark the bracelet with a line (noting the person had picked up their $45 already). We wanted the bracelet on so you could have in and out privileges on both Friday and Saturday. Will probably use a more durable and less bothersome bracelet next year.

awesome event, had to be a record setter i would think.


definitely need to add sanitation stations by the bathrooms tho. Between the BBQ sauce and using the bathroom frequently, i felt filthy that i couldnt wash my hands.

as i was leaving found out the bathroom by the pavillion was open

Sadly, I missed the event this year. Out of town.

Are the winners posted someplace?

Congrats, BO!!

Should be up on website pretty soon. Was a scattershot year as opposed to last year when seemed like same 10 teams were in the top 10 in each year.

Might want to go out of town every year from now on, you know for superstition purposes.

We discussed that the plastic ones would be much better. You could do a hole punch if the marker doesn't work on it.


I was also surprised that I had to keep it on for two days but I understand the decision.

Was a really nice beer for being out in the sun eating pork. I enjoyed it. Just wished it was available in more of the beer booths.

I went after Hogs Saturday and it was about 3 min wait. Got a thigh and a wing. I would like to know if that's the regular recipie or if it was a cheap festival knock off. It was very disappointing.
