[CQ-Contest] Contest Conflict

[Mark Beckwith]

>I don't recall that a February
>date for the Super Bowl has occurred before.

February 2002.  September 11th 2001 caused such an interruption (no games
for a couple weeks if I remember) that they had to postpone the Super Bowl.

I had booked a concert on a date AFTER the Super Bowl and it turned out to
be DURING the Super Bowl, so I lost my shirt on that one in the name of
patriotism.

If the reason the Super Bowl is in February this year is bacause of a
similar "one-time-only" problem, then the contest conflict is not an ongoing
problem.  If on the other hand the Super Bowl people have decided to start
having their event in February sometimes, then there IS a problem.

I never understood this great interest in bowling, so I just don't get it.
