Hey all, Thank you for all of your help & Support these past two months with this competition. We are currently Second in the rankings.
Our goal for this month is to get 1000 Votes. This is a VERY ambitious goal, but one that I do believe we can attain with all of your help and support.
Please help us by going to www.BubbaKegTailgate.com Click on "VOTE", then Register for an account (It's FREE to Register), then Choose AZBarbeque for your vote.
The prize for this contest is 2 Tickets to the 2010 BCS National Championship NCAA Football Game in Pasadena, California.
IF/When we win, we are going to Auction off the Tickets and use 100% of the Proceeds to help start up a College Fund for Two Beautiful Girls age 7 & 9 who have lost their Brother, Mother & Uncle over this past year in 3 different tragedies. Their Grandfather and Grandmother are very good Friends of AZBarbeque & the BBQ Community. We want to help them provide for their two Granddaughters now that their mom is gone. WE need your help to do this.
Please forward this on to EVERYONE you know and Please personally ask them to help us out by voting and passing it on.
Many, if not all of you, have been to our Tailgate parties or events or have seen pictures of them. You know we put on one heck of an event and always go above & beyond. Help us to do this again this time.
Thank you all for your help & support. Please keep voting from each e-mail address you have. If you have any problems, questions or suggestions, please call or e-mail me.

FSU is making a good push, they are pulling out the "No one will Vote for us" ploy.
We still have one more tailgate party coming up this Saturday and we NEED everyone's vote. I was hoping to have 500 + votes as of today, but hopefully after next weekend, we will have over 700, that's our goal.
If you want to come out to our Tailgate party next weekend, we would love to see you all. ASU vs. UofA. It's going to be a great party and a great game.
Come on out, enjoy some great food and let's have some fun getting these additional votes..
Thanks for EVERYONE's Help. Let's keep it going.
YOU ALL ROCK!!!

AZBarbeque 679
FSU 613

REMEMBER, Technically we are losing as we are still 120 votes short from September that we need to make up, so we need to win by more than 120 votes.
Thanks to those that have voted and PLEASE Vote to those who still have not.
Thanks... ;)
-
OUCH... FSU has pulled ahead of us by 30+ votes today.
Unless we can get some serious support, I don't know how we are going to be able to pull this off.
It is really important that we win this so we can do something special for Bernie's Grand Daughters.
We have 2 big events this weekend, the ASU vs. UofA Tailgate and Monday Nite Football, but we still need lots and lots of help. I think we will need well over 1100 votes to win this thing, so please help out and vote vote vote.
Thanks for all the support, we do GREATLY Appreciate it and I know that Bernie & Millie are very moved by everyone's support on this.

Only 2 days left to vote in November. Right now, it's awfully close. The November votes are 821 for FSU. Azbarbeque.com has garnered a paltry 1283. And while I was typing this, FSU added another vote. Maybe if we can eke out another batch of votes, we can win this thing!!
Mike and crew must have done a fantastic job promoting our cause yesterday. Hopefully, some of the fans and students who were at the game will be inspired to go seek out bubbakeg today.
PROPS TO MIKE, TOM, AND YOUR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS OUT THERE RECRUITING! ;) :exclaim:

Ok I created some votes. Looking good.

[attachment deleted by admin]

Remember though, last Monday night, they were able to get over 400 votes.
We have a Monday Night Football Party planned and hope to get another 100 or so votes out at it, so keep your fingers crossed. I know a few of our sponsors have a few things set up for Monday night as well. Hopefully we can get another 200 - 300 votes and really put it away.
Keep voting if you have not and let's really make sure we win this thing.
Thanks for everyone's support. ;)

So AzBarbeque won?!!
Sorry I see the other post now.
-
Still waiting to hear something "Official" from Bubba Keg. So far, they have not locked the voting yet. Hope to hear from them today..
-
Lets all keep our fingers crossed
-
just tried to vote, and it won't let me. so i assume that its locked now. on the forum thread it shows the topic as being both pinned and locked. it also shows that you whooped them in November. so hopefully its was enough to win overall.
-
I too just checked it and yes, it is finally locked and closed. Hoping they make an announcement soon.. ;)

LOL, nice....
-
Well, now they're taking the top 3 and voting goes on until Dec. 11th!!!!!!!!!!! WTF?? ::)
-
As Jay said WTF. The team they wanted to win didn't, so now we have a run off. What a bunch of crap. But what can you expect from that part of the country, run offs seem to be a way of life. Who's watching the "chads" this time?
http://bubbakeg.com/bboard/index.php?PHPSESSID=mamtjrnnm7hoaq4kus4ajklh97&topic=302.0
-
What kind of Bullshit is this, you vote and the results are secret. Don't that just make you want to run out and spend your money with them?
-
Does seem kinda fishy to me.
-
Sounds like its time to call in the power of the Sun Devil nation from America's largest university...ASU! >:D
Mike, you may want to drop a line to Bob Young @ The Heat Index in the sports section of the Az Republic. I bet he'd pop a blurb in his blog. http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/BobYoung/
-
Mike,
Was that explained at the beginnning that they would have "finalists?" There is some serious BS going on here.
-
hey i just voted and it didn't show who is ahead or anything. that sucks! stupid S.E.C.
-
Yes, this is compete Bullshit.
Here is what they sent me and my response... Please all of you send e-mails and post all over their board calling BULLSHIT on this as well.
E-mail them at: william.conway@in-zone.com & drew.keenan@in-zone.com

Mike,
Go back into the post that you posted on thier site and remove your contact information. Not a good idea to post that on the site on thier forums, thier supporters might have a field day with it.
-
WOW.....that is some seriously unethical BS.
-
Good catch. Thanks...
-
Wait, not they will have super fan votes or whatever the hell they called it? That's seems very much like an electoral college where regardless of what the constituents want, the dumbass can vote however he wants! This is ridiculous!
-
Post up over there and let them know. Send e-mails as well.
Simply BS...
-
Very interesting, the post I put on their board earlier today about who won, is gone, and the thread is locked. I think these people are a bunch of bullshit artist and scammers. Maybe everyone needs to put this out on whatever boards your members of so people will know not to support them by buying their products.
-

And which way do the hanging chads vote?
-
Post that up over there Mark...
-
Mike, you just have a dirty mouth.
-
And I was being nice... Wait until they really piss me off..
-
Have they offered any type of formal explanation?
-
I just replied over at Bubb Kegg. I agree total crap.
-
WTF.... this is Fla.. what do you expect. Anyways, I got my vote in.
-
Hey all, as pissed as I am, I honestly believe that it's not FSU or Clemson's fault. Bubba Keg is located in Georgia and as far as I can see, they are not favoring any one team.
I don't want to make this about us vs. FSU or Clemson as both of those teams have been awesome to compete against.
It's all about Bubba Keg & their Marketing team. Let's keep the focus on that.
Thanks, I GREATLY APPRECIATE your support..
-
Mike, seems like you've thrown out a 24hr moratorium on this. I won't post anything else on their site until you've talked with them. But I have to say, their moderator is a jerk.
-
What a bunch of crap this co. turned out to be :mad:
-
They are working through it. I talked with them this morning.
Seems the guy, Drew, that was in charge of the contest, is no longer with the company and the people that picked up his work load did not know all the specifics behind the contest.
Hopefully they will make it right quickly. I'm keeping my fingers crossed..
-
Thanks Mike, sometimes a step back helps. But most of the time we just want to jump in and kill something. >:D
-
Just went to the bubbakeg board. The thread has been removed.

I tried this address and it told me it either was removed or unavailable to me
I guess I won't be supporting Bubba Keg :mad: :mad:

Same here. :mad: >:D

I found that Mike response to Bubba Keg was recorded, much like Tiger to his mistress.
Here's Mike (he was so worked up you might not recognize him.) ;)

:-X
-
They did call me and ask if it was OK to move it off line until they figured this whole thing out. I did agree to it.
Hopefully they can get it all worked out..

Must have been my stellar posts that got them to consider rethinking all of this! :D
