2:28 – If the other competitors can financially justify it, it’s not a “waste of time” to go and enjoy the fun experience. That’s not any different than a destination vacation or travelling to see a sports team play.

Wayne beat Scott last year…?
I do think Scott will beat him this year, but I wouldn’t say Wayne has 0%.
