The Medals Ceremony - It's nice to see the good guys win.

 

This is such a thrill for us.  As many of you know Evan has been very good to us.  We jokingly said he was a part of our marketing team.  He made a trip to Spokane before the 2007 Championships just to do a media day, and we worked him from very early in the morning with TV and radio interviews, then a lunch and pictures with sponsors, followed by a trip up to Eagles to do a clinic with the local kids, he was FABULOUS!  When you work with athletes you can quickly tell who is the real deal. Evan is truely the real deal.

If you're a fan in the stands, one of the benefits of a sport that is very slow to change is that if you watch the finals you still get to see the medals awarded immediately following the event.  All other sports have their medal ceremony the next day at a Victory Ceremony which as an event organizer I prefer.  But it was sure nice to be there to see them drape that gold medal around Evan's neck.
