First Time Going To Wrestling Banquet Sunday.

[therod]

Can someone who attended these in the past kindly give a brief outlook as to what I should expect. Are awards presented? Do you mingle with the wrestlers and coaching staff? Do you sign in somewhere and are you assigned a table or is it first come first served? Anything else you think might be helpful? Thanks in advance.

When you arrive, you'll pick up your name tag. Sitting and standing around outside the Banquet Room, mingling with whoever you want...with light snacks and a cash bar. Doors will open, sit where you want. Buffet style, table-by-table. There will be a program at your seat. Yes, there are awards, bunches of them, followed by comments from the PSWC, the team, and Coach Cael. Jeff Byers is the MC, and the wrestlers will hang around afterwards for the fans. Hope this helps.

Yes it does help, thanks for taking the time to reply. Just one more question. I know it ultimately depends how long you stay after, but can you give an approximate time as to when it is all wrapped up? There are six of us coming and one or two have other plans later that evening and are just wondering. Thanks again.

I would say it will be all over by 4, is that about right Roar? See y'all there!!

 

[RoarLions1]

4 or a little before, depends on how long the "comments" are .

 

[Slick8]

Roar, any way of finding out what Rasheed will wrestle next year and status of Cassar. thanks

Your going to have a blast and you'll find the kids are very approachable.

I'm heading to the Phillies game or would be joining you fine people.

Someone please post the video they do as a season recap. I always enjoy those.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Someone keep an eye out for Creedo. I'd look under the crawl space under the podium riser.

Did Roar make everyone take a rules quiz to enter the banquet? If so, did Cael pass?

Yes, one was done...and shown at the banquet...just not made available yet by media relations.

 

[GOLDBANGER]

Is it me or do I have a serious wrestling hangover this year? Can't even get into football at all yet.

 

[Lyco1990]

Mongolia, Jr. World qualfiers, Jr. Worlds and the olympics. More to come banger. LT's tonight on me.

Far be it for me to pass up free booze Lyco, but we have a suite at BJC for Springsteen tonight.

 

[RandyL]

So...with the banquet in the books...what did we learn about Spencer Lee's choice?

 

[LemonPie]

Also, who is going to UWW Juniors? Registration list comes out Wednesday night, but who wants to wait that long? I know Cassar, Nickal, Stout, and Joseph are Junior eligible, but unsure about others.

The video is usually on the GoPSUTV youtube page. They have all of the previous wrestling banquet videos posted. I'm a big fan of them as they are usually really well done.

Speaking of Cassar...anyone have the latest?
