    She looks pretty comfortable, like in some kind of a zone.

    And this is why the Maleman was tossed. He would of wiped everyone clean and taken his title back

    Janus knows he cannot eat crawfish and did not want to embarrass himself like last time

    I.wonder if Janis would have asked sonya to split her winnings with everyone else that competed

    FYI: everyone in Atlantic agreed to split their winnings except for US Male.

    Thanks Jon. Everyone down there was great from the sponser to the people in the crowd. The weather was perfect, free beer, crawfish and fun. Damn good time and a huge crowd. I am looking forward to coming back next year.

    If Sonya ate the shells, those crayfish must have been very tough, even though she excelled in OT, because she ate roughly half of what she ate last year.

    Guys, how many times have we been over this? You cannot trust the results of a crawfish contest. In terms of inaccuracy of judging, it’s like a wings contest X 10. So, Rhonda, rather than saying it must have been very tough because Sonya’s numbers were so much higher last year, you should simply stay quiet and realize that it’s pointless to compare two numbers that were created out of thin air.

    I can’t say that. I was not there.

    plus, all that extra oil in the crawfish slowed everybody down
