It might be a historic day for Illinois. State record? US record? World record? The scale will tell.

Have you been to the Cedarburg weigh off? IMHO the best festival surrounding a weigh off that I have ever been too. Wonderful atmosphere and unbelievable exposure. Not sure on the numbers but it has to be over 25,000 visitors.

Tconway, I ask why not an Illinois weigh off? Or is it ready to go and not worth risking not making it? Either way, saw pics and best of luck.
