They will be airing the interview all week long on all the local networks. It sounded like they will be here on saturday too, to film all the boats in the event.
Who knows, they may even want to jump on a boat ot two, and do some filming from the run. They are really helping us alot, to publicize our event.

Re: CHICAGO POKER RUN, who's going?
We were going to come this year
But the Cig was sold a week ago and is now at its new home in Sarasota FL
Have a safe event and we will try to make it next year with the NEW 42 Sunsation
