Explanation of Registration Fee & Ticket sales:
Please note that all of you understood that there was a 5 ticket sell requirement for you to be eligible for your submission bonus. This is based off of general admission tickets. We have now made it possible that anyone can elect to pay $110 registration fee when they weigh in rather than selling 5 tickets if you choose. You may also split your ticket sales mixed with your registration fee. Example: You sell 2 $35 tickets you can pay $40 to compete to make up the difference to complete the $110 registration fee.
