OCTOBER 15, 2008
Hello to everyone,
I have a lot to cover in this eBlast, both tournament updates and
 some special offers and events from our sponsors, but first of all—the weather here is beautiful. Norbert dumped some rain but everything is in good shape and the second storm has dissipated.
We've been getting a lot of questions on the number of teams also. Entries have been pouring in over the past few days so I don't have an exact number, but we are well over 100 in the Black & Blue and at about 55 for the Los Cabos. That puts us at about the same as this time last year in the Black & Blue and ahead of this time for the Los Cabos. We'll post current figures on the website as soon as we get through everything that has come in over the past several days.
Now I'll get right to the news. Here's a list of what I'll cover:
Tournament Information
International Angling Club Championship Update
Sperry Top-Sider Early Bird Division
Deals on Rental Cars from National
Las Villas de Mexico Cocktail Reception
Snell Real Estate Presents Villas de Oro
Cabo Riviera Beach Bar-B-Que
UjENA Jam Photo Tour
Maxim en Espanola Clubkini Party (Official Final Night Party)
• Registration for the Los Cabos Offshore will start at 3:00pm at the Baja Cantina DOCKSIDE.

• The Official 2008 Black & Blue Tournament T-Shirt is now pre-selling in the Bisbee's Sports Store. Place your order now—t-shirts will ship after our crew gets back from Cabo November 3rd.
• Be sure to check our October 9th eBlast for other important updates.
 We're getting a lot of interest in the IACC from our international anglers and already have four teams from Japan, seven from Russia and the Ukraine and one from Finland signed up. The winner of this new Championship will receive three days of fishing for five people in the Cape Verde Islands onboard the famous mothership/gameboat fishing operation “Madam and the Wild Hooker”, a package valued at over $20,000.00!
 Everyone who got their entry in before August 1st is automatically entered into the Sperry Top-Sider Early Bird Division. Sperry will be awarding gift certificates for four pairs of shoes each day to the Early Bird team that releases the first marlin each day.
 National is offering some great deals on rental cars this year. Take a look at the National Flyer to see the deals and mention Bisbee's Black & Blue when you rent your car.
 Las Villas De Mexico is hosting a Bisbee's Finale Cocktail Party with complimentary appetizers, drinks and beer tasting on Friday, October 24th at 8:00pm across from Dock “I” at the Cabo San Lucas Marina, the site of their luxury marina condominium project.

The San Jose del Cabo Ujena Jam Photo Tour will be taking place in Los Cabos in conjunction with the Black & Blue.  Over 30 swimsuit models, photographers and crews will be working together to get images of the latest UjENA Swimwear's bikinis and fashions.
On October 21st, throughout Registration, they will be hosting a swimwear-photographer competition. Photo shoots will take place throughout the mall area as models and photographers compete to capture the best shots and win numerous prizes. Check out the Official Program for all of the Jam events.
Lastly, our Official Bisbee's Final Night Party is taking place in  conjunction with UjENA at the Zoo club in Cabo San Lucas Saturday, October 25th after the Awards Celebration. At least one model (the "Maxim Hottie") will be selected to appear in Maxim en Espanola magazine.
