Day 16, Sunday October 27
The second day of the show was cold and cloudy.

A special tent for the grand champion, in its own show tank.

It really is a small world! These are two customers from New Jersey who I ran into at the show. I had this photo retouched to remove his University of Miami logo with a Penn State logo–the only college football team that matters!

You think he'd still be smiling like this if he knew what we were going to do to his shirt?

Time for the awards ceremony. Isa Hajame is giving out one of the awards.

A shot of the awards. Talk about hardware…

The winner's tank. You can see my goshki in the middle of the bunch.

Believe it or not, this is a manhole cover. It would make a nice plaque! They're throughout the entire city Ojiya.

Done for the day: Janel, a dealer from California, Kelly, and Hoshino.
