just wondering what ever happened to the annual ben geren blow?

it was pretty much replaced by the Ice Bowl, it would be nice to bring back if we could find someone to run it

What a shocker that Little Rock says that they are going to do something PDGA and then back out at the last second, they do this every year and then question why they dont get the numbers that they want.
Maybe they should try something different like following WAFDA's footsteps and having multiple B tiers each year.
I will no doubt be boycotting these tourneys

Tell em' like it is Chris!!

Doug Trantham wants to sanction, problem is the Little Rock club changes their mind

I just hope that the Hot Springs thing in November really sanctions :)
