Plugfest 2007 - Thank you everyone!

No surprise but yet again you all pulled off a tremendous PlugFest - truly awesome and inspiring work that you did.

Congrats to the winners! Pictures coming (I saw a lot of people taking pics) and all the details will be put up soon.

Thanks to Fishpart for running the door so I wouldn't get anyone sick (which I'm getting to be again so off to nap I go in 2 minutes) and big round of applause to Slipknot for all he did on putting this together for all of of us

I'm off to bed for a power nap!

Thanks & again, Congrats

Oh, and one more thing. I still have some more cash to give out from the prizes. Tomorrow I will pick out the rest and send some PMs out. I figure I can PayPal that money to people - I will also put up a list for the those that need to send me their addy so I can send out the award plaques - thanks again!

Another Amazing plugfest!
I had a great time seeing all you nuts again and meeting new ones.
Thanks for all the help everyone Thanks to Mrs. Slip for her help, thanks to those who brought food, drinks and supplies, thanks to those who helped out setting up and breaking down, Thanks to JohnR for a great site, thanks to bassmaster for spinning wood, and to PNG also.
Great group of people you all are. Thanks to those that make the long trek to join us at Plugfest 2007, you guys from NJ are dedicated for sure. Chumbucket, Thank you so much again for "THE Plug" it really made my day getting that swap plug from so long ago, you put alot of effort into that one and went beyond what was ever neccesary.
Thanks to all who entered contest plugs, it makes for a fun event for all

I took a few pictures too, I'll get the rest up later

here is one of the plug I added to the novelty contest for someone since they couldn't make it
and the next pic is of the awesome shirt JohnR designed and has to get going and pre-sell some so he can place the order of 150 so we can all have some too.
