Help Us Identify the 2008 Winning Motorized Float
Jun 27th, 2008, 1:07pm
 
My very bad notes indicate the winner was "Ciudad de Quito" and has an illegible number attached to it. Alas, we have been unable to associate this note with anything in the real world.

Who won this category? Help us. Share photos too.

By the way, next year I will be once again appointing a Bailiff who will keep a much clearer list.

Thanks in advance.

Just out of curiosity if you can't find the winning entry, does it get disqualified and we all move up in rank?

The klingons approve of that type of pecking order
(where's my batlath)

Chief Justice I believe I have uncovered the winner based on my notes found while cleaning out the trunk of my car. Drum Roll... my notes say #88 Ciudad de Quito. Now hopefully that number is correct!

No dice Indy.

We had the 88, it just doesn't match anything. Keep searching that trunk for more clues.

I'd try getting in touch with Kevin L. Muth from those flickr pages.
It seems to be him and mason and paige and kat and fennel and ...
You get the idea.

Good job Harris! That looks like the number 88. If I recall correctly Ciudad de Quito was on the back of the vehicle which I can't see in any of the pics but I shall contact that photographer for insight. Chief Justice we are closing in, I feel it!
