February "Best Shirt" Award

The February 2008 Best Shirt Award fell on the first day of the month, and it was a very fitting kick-off event for an event-filled weekend and month.  While there were high expectations for having the first female winner, there were no female contestants wearing a shirt, but there was a fair amount of grumbling about "Women don't wear shirts" or "the rules are too narrowly defined with a 'shirt'".

There was a good selection of male contestants, and while it looked like the contest might have its first two-time winner, the impartial judges from Georgia worked though the field and came p with another first-time winner.
