I attended the Windy City Cornhole Classic this past Saturday and feel the need to spread the word, here and everywhere I can, that it was the most unorganized event I have ever been to! People were waiting hours to play a team and were shouting and walking around just to find the team they needed to play! Teams were waiting 3 hours just to play one team!!!!!!! COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL!!! There was not enough staff to handle the amount of people that they let in. What at first was supposed to be 63 teams turned into over 150! It was completely out of control and a waste of everyones time and money! I guess Aaron Del Mar and Articulate Promotions was only interested in the money they would make and failed to pay enough staff!!! The beer ran out and the band only played for an hour or two! A few hours in people were starting to get very aggravated and teams began to leave! Some, including the team I was with, are demanding their money back. THINK TWICE BEFORE ENTERING ANY COMPETITIONS RUN BY ARTICULATE PROMOTIONS!!!!!!!

What's with all the frat boy BS? Why would you stereotype a game? You two are clearly retarded. P.S. I will be winning this tournament!
