Yeah I'm friends with him and I have to say he's not at all like he is on the forums.
anyway I will tell the story from my point of view. Anybody can feel free to add if I forgot something or if something is wrong.
I got up at 5:30 in the morning yesterday and checked to make sure that there were no cancellations. There were no cancellations when I woke up, and there were no cancellations up through when I had left my house. As soon as I get to the school, a custodian approaches me and tells me that I can't use the school. It turns out just 5 minutes before I got there, they made the announcement that all howard county facilities are closed for the day. He was being a real jerk about it and basically told me to get the hell out. So as soon as he walked away, I brought in all the things for the competition and started setting up the room. The custodian got really upset, and threatened to call the principal. I told him yeah, get the principal on the phone and let me talk to him. He walked out of the room and was on the phone for at least 30 minutes while I was still setting up the room. He comes back into the room and says that he talked to the assistant principal and that he says I have to get out of the building. I complain some more, and continue setting up the room, but after some more time he actually gets me to the principal. I tried to negotiate with him, but he wasn't able to make any exceptions (but at least he was very nice about it). I called Bob and let him know that we needed to find a new place to hold the competition.
The next hour or so was spent calling random places trying to see if they could hold a last minute event at their venue. Just about every single place we tried to contact was either already booked or closed. During this time, we had a ton of competitors entering and just sitting around waiting, and the custodian also kept nagging me to ****. Eventually, I believe Rowe googled "clarksville venues" or something like that, and we found somewhere a little less than 10 minutes away. A couple cubers (I don't know specifically who. Rowe, Dan, Tim, Kian, others?) went over to the venue to make sure it was suitable, and it was actually perfect. On top of that, they lowered the price to something extremely reasonable, and gave us the entire day through 5:00 instead of only 5 hours. We took it and let all the competitors know where the competition would be held. We proceeded to have a pretty awesome competition!
Also, luckily enough, the 40 pizzas that I ordered did not go to waste. The papa johns that I ordered from happened to be right next to the new venue that we moved to.
) i got to hang out with my family and practice! 2 people set a NR there so that was kinda cool. All the tables were full there (since there was like close to 85 people there) so we had to stand by a wall but luckily some people gave us some chairs
