Thumbs up 2018 Big Bang Open OFFICIAL Scores, Weigh-in and Awards Blast!

I thought last year's BBO was the smoothest running BBO in history. Well, the 2018 Big Bang Open was even smoother operationally.

Everything worked well from the pre-packaged registration kits, the amazing prize wall, the dual scales weigh-in, the delicious buffet, the robust and fun awards ceremony and the overall cheerful enjoyment had by all participants.

The BBO venue at the Palm Beach Gardens Moose Lodge is wonderful. This is our fifth year there.

The sponsors, the volunteers, the vendors, the charities, the contestants, the families - all pulled together and made this event one of the best. Thank you all.

An outstanding feature of the Big Bang! Open is the incredible number of prizes we have displayed on our prize wall. Sponsors appreciate having their prizes showcased like this for the crowd to see and touch.

We had dozens and dozens spear guns and pole spears for the contestants to choose from along with many other great pay-offs for their spearing efforts.

Our photographer Kyle Darcy took over 400 photos of the event and our videographer Ryan Dee once again did a good job.

Here are the trophy winners. Then below that are the scores which earn trips to the prize wall.
