I was at the Classic in 2000, it was really fun, same deal, big city thing, weigh in at Soldier Field in Chicago, but the wind blew and so did the fishing- Hopefully this year is the last time they try that stunt and just look at the fishery rather then the hope of spreading out the market- at least Chicago could have been epic if the wind would have let those guys out on the big water for bags of 6 lb. smallies, but it sucked. Toho has a better chance to make it fun for us to watch, I think a Classic at the Delta or Clear Lake when it's on would blow minds. I did like all the coverage on ESPN, beats watching some clown in rollerblades grinding off his mom's station wagon bumper or some dudes playing poker- when did that become a sport? :P

Fish is epic, they need to bring him back!!!!!
