Waking up way too early to drive way too far (with littles anyway!) on only 3 hours of sleep sounds like a disaster, but let me tell you - it was a GREAT time!! Even if I may not have agreed with the judges... in fact I strongly disagree with their decisions. I am pretty biased though so I'll let you draw your own conclusions.
Here is the photo:
In case you don't know. Brad is in the front, wearing the #1... and yet. He got third. THIRD. Not even second. See the teeny, tiny boys behind him? Yeah. They both beat him. Really judges?!.. Interestingly enough the twiggy twins are both good ol' local boys from Spokane.
Can you say political win?
The announcer shook his head and sighed when he saw the results.
After getting their awards, the top three get their photos taken and the official photographer said this to Brad "Hey big guy you stand here, then 2nd place here and 3rd place there". When Brad walked over to the 3rd place position. The photographer said "No, no, no... we need you to stand front and center." When Brad told him he got third place, the photographer stopped and said "Huh. Uh ok, you're in the right place then."
There were other comments like:
"You should have walked off stage."
"I would have kicked the trophy at the judges"
... others I'm sure I wasn't privy to. I know I wanted to throw a few chairs, but Brad handled it like a champ. He was calm and cool about it, disappointed of course but he allowed himself to be sad and then got over it. He was back to his happy, dorky self in no time :) It was a really good trip and we all had a GREAT time supporting our very own rising star.
