Memphis in May

[Big Dave]

I was able to attend Memphis in May for the first time.  My wife was working in Memphis last week and I was able to go meet
up with her.  Had a blast.  A group she works with had a team entered.  I was just a spectator. 

The Weber display was impressive.  I am biased, but as far as vendors go, Weber display was head and solders above.  Weber had a very nice portable show room that was like being inside a store and had the cooking school set up with classes throughout the event.

I wore a WKC shirt.  Which brought many questions and interest.  Tuffy Stone even found a picture on his phone of his Kettle Collection.


I was happy to meet some of the celebrities at the event.

Great pics Dave! I know you were so excited!

Man my sister lives in Memphis and called me Saturday night from the riverfront wanting me to pack up the kids and drive down. I so wanted to.

Here's a thought for everyone. What about a meetup, next year, for Memphis in May? What would everyone think of that?

It's actually a small city, but there is a lot to see, places to eat and a places to stay.

Wow looks like a great time.  Always wanted to go to a big time BBQ Comp with the big guns.

Looks like a lot of fun.  I met Myron back in '02.  We were almost competing against each other.  He was doing MBN and I was in their Backyard Grillers division.  (Hub was there, we were on the same team then.)  He was a nice guy back then.  He was the CG and gave his ticket to Memphis to a team from Salisbury, NC.  'Course, he already had a ticket from a previous win ! ! !

looks like fun.  I'm envious of the people you got to meet.
