Very pleased to announce that Grant Buhr will be the head ref. He was one of the ref at last years CSM, and has also reffed a good deal of other contests.

Its basicly the ~$800 price tag thats killing it for me for this comp (plus I'll miss 2 nights working at the club, which will bring the total upto well over $1000 for the weekend). I also know both Matty and Big John can whoop my ass and there was a bunch of impessive prarie boys at last years westerns too, soo... Its a tough deciesson knowing I could do 2 US comps for the same price. Just dont fully count me out yet... I'm watching for seat sales with Crap Jet. |
