Most likely a bunch of people who weren't suppose to.... because once again their fantastic scanning computer computations were ALL SCREWED UP! Calling wrong names that didn't match with the actual contest numbers that won! (But SSSSHHHHHH, it's not suppose to get out!)

what about those cameras that no-one was talking about!!!

Heard rumors that this powwow is mostly for those Cali folks and that the committee didn't like big name drums/dancers coming in. Read comments about this powwow on one of those old threads and seems like this has been going on for a few years. Heard one of the dancers was caught on tape leaving the arena, lost their grand entry points but still managed to place. If they don't want outsiders coming to their powwow, they should state that in their flyer.

Never heard about any camera's, but quite a few winners who either weren't suppose to win got called up as a winner.....and the real winners didn't get called OR the real winner got the wrong place paid out. The smart people went up and checked their points afterwards and the other smart "winners" cut out right after they got their envelopes! Hahaha So once again they had to pull money out of their pockets to pay the real winners!

And as for only wanting Cali people at this powwow, that's not quite true. They do try to get local drums (of which Cali does have some good ones) but most of the other head staff come from out of town and usually the winners do too......the Cali people don't have much of a chance there.....even though they are just as good....but I guess just not "popular" enough for the Pico's!!

yup, I was told they had cameras and could see who was leaving grand entry and so on. i agree this pow wow is really for the local Cali dancers. but it is still a nice lil pow wow. they always feed the dancers and the fireworks are some of the best I've seen!

that's why lot of people don't go to this one! i like the feed though. AD is weird. i'll give it a couple year till i go back. it'll iron out hopefully.
