Okay, I got confused. I thought you were talking about after the comp. Isaiah and I are driving down first thing Saturday morning. So if anybody wants to hit an eatery or something afterwards, I'm certainly game.

Yeah, that's why I wanted to clarify the plans. Cool. I'm sure we will gather after the comp to pig out somewhere.

3 lbs of meat in an OMFG burger??? You put that down the hatch, and I'll put your name on my wall too.

I honestly think that burger was possible last Oct. I did the triple and it went down in 5 minutes. Ate a basket of onion rings and Megans's basket of fries, with a couple beers and water was still eating. Then again I was worried about weigh-ins then.

LMAO!

OMFG rules:

If you finish it in 30 minutes or less, you have won your claim to fame. Finish it in 20 minutes or less, it’s on the house! GOOD LUCK! (you’ll need it)! FINISHING= You have not only consumed the entire monster of a burger, you have cleared the basket. You keep it down. Doesn’t count if you throw it up. If you can’t keep it down inside, you clean it up with the shirt on your back. No chipmunk-ing. Doesn’t count if it’s still in your cheeks.

I think y'all need to stay up late Friday drinking Zach's bad*** brews, and doing grip feats of strength until the wee hours of the night. :D

Sounds familiar ... that's what Aaron and I have done before each contest the 3 times I've been out .... feats of strength and drinking .... great combination the night before a comp :rolleyes

I had a blast though ... can't beat Aaron's comps ... don't miss it

That's the kind of lady you don't kick out of bed for eating crackers - for a plethora of reasons. ;)

Haha, I remember Tim telling me stories of that the night before last years nationals. I think he was trying to talk me into a few beers and feats.

Hey Aaron - Crossfit Works says their address is

244 S. Tucson Blvd. Your website has 204 S. Tucson Blvd. I'm assuming the 244 is the correct one. Shouldn't be too hard to find either way.

They just moved last week into a different part of the center they are in. 244 is correct and it will be the gym with the big gym sign on the front.

Will there be a live stream of the event by chance?

There would be if you came and brought your computer Jedd :D

I brought my camera down so we should be able to record the whole event (as long as we remember to do it). I probably won't edit or upload any of it until next week though.

Many, many thanks to Aaron for putting on one hell of a competition. The amount of work he put into making today happen was truly astonishing!!!!

Thanks also to Crossfit Works, and to all the sponsors! There was some amazing SWAG!!!
