    ATA President David A Rhodes, Kansas, recently said in an interview to expect nearly 5,000 shooters competing at the Grand.

    This is the 20th Anniversary of the Sparta takeover.

    5,000?

    Thanks for sending me this.

    I report. You decide.

    Shooters, OR entries?
    They always use the entries number for the entire week, to make that shoot at that place look as if it WASN’T THE BIGGEST MISTAKE they ever made.
    If they get HALF that number actually shooting in the GAH event I’ll eat this phone.

    They won't have 3,000 entries. Do you think Rhodes is that stupid? Or that dishonest?

    Publishing false numbers to fool vendors? Or to fool
    the State of Illinois?

    When or IF anyone questions rhodes later, after the abysmal turn out AGAIN, he will claim he meant entries.
    winston used to try the same thing. When I told him that my local club had 100 shooters entered in all three event for the day that didn't mean I had 300 shooters.
