Champ,
I did a little research on past winners. This year marks 50 years since a Mississippi man has won the prize in Stuttgart. (1958 - WC Cross of Greenwood). What a nice round number to end that streak on. Good luck and be confident in yourself and your ability...you would not be there otherwise.
Describe the contest, i.e., how do people qualify, how many people qualify, how many rounds are there, what kind of money can you win, etc., for those of us not in the calling circuit? Thanks
