Who should win?
Go to www.usaswimming.org/GoldenGogglesAwards/
I had to vote for my neighborhood kids, Chloe Sutton and Kate Zeigler. But I think Whitney Myers (200IM) and Brendan Hansen (***) had the best performances of the year.

Has anyone here who reads these forums ever gone to the Golden Goggles banquet? I believe they can go for a $500 price tag or something like that. They get all sorts of famous people both in and out of swimming that go to this. I wonder if they have ever sold this out? This is like the Emmys or Academy Awards for USA swimming.
I think last year the tickets were $1,000 a piece....otherwise I totally would have gone.
I think I remeber hearing somewhere that they sold out last year, but I could be wrong.
p.s. I'm willing to accept donations for a ticket if anybody wants me to go. I'll be sure to send pictures and write a detailed account. ;) I guess I can take one for the team and schmooze with Michael Phelps.
