Well, I have sufficiently recovered from my Scare on the Square experience to share without my blood pressure going up, my heart pounding heavily or my adrenaline bouncing around.
I LOST THE FREAKING WINDOW PAINTING CONTEST!
I didn't even place.
The Rules of the contest were to incorporate SFA homecoming and Halloween using the theme "So Good It's Scary". I will give Second and Third place their dues, they were good and I knew it was just up to the judge which of us would take first place. I am okay with losing to the Heart of Texas and The House of Versailles, they had had wonderful windows.
I am not okay with losing to Commercial Bank. When the prizes were given, the presenter went on and on about how creative the winner was, how the winner had won several years in a row. How intricate and involved their theme was. I was sitting there wondering what window I had missed because none of the windows were as good as this guy made them sound. He then presented first place to the bank. I was stunned.
The bank (paid artist) had painted a scarecrow and some pumpkins on its windows. (no halloween, no homecoming)
It was insulting to everyone who entered the competition.
