Mat did not make the show as he was biten by a spider and had some major swelling. Ross came out and brought a variety of very nice Tosai. On the Vegas Baby thread I posted a couple of pictures of Ross, none of their Koi though.

Hi Dick,
Ross brought a couple of nice kohaku. I missed out on one kohaku and it took YOUNG CHAMPION. I predicted it to win best in size 2 but I guess she much better than that. I guess we can request from the Las Vegas koi Club organization to start posting pictures.
I also missed the awarding ceremony coz I promised to take my father-in-law to the Pacquiao / Barrera fight. But overall it was a great show.
Michael

Yes, was there from 5:00pm Friday to 4:00 pm Sunday. We had a big Matsunosuke banner up in front of our tanks.

I believe you are talking about the Baby Champion. It was purchased at the show from Ross. That size 2 Kohaku has a big fish body on it. The Young Champion also came from the Nisei Koi Farm but it had been purchased earlier this year and brought to the show by Bryan and Robbie.

No, but it now has an incurable sweet tooth.

Does anyone have a complete (or more complete) list of winners?
