The 1997 Lee Atwater Invitational Dead Pool

This Year's Invitational is Dedicated
to the Memory and Spirit of
Dinky Patterson

     Man, this internet thing is one powerful motherfucker, ain't it? Consider that we got a whole bunch of total strangers (141 lists) to send eleven bucks to what might be the home address of some guy they never heard of for a chance to maybe win some money a year later .... What a country! Anyway, here are the final standings for '97, unless we screwed it up. We had to do this ourselves, so be sure to check out your own lists and let us know if you find any mistakes or missed deaths or anything.      That little bastard of an intern we sent to make the bank deposit finally called us from Vegas, so we had to scrounge to come up with the prize money. Also note that the two names in brackets went unrecognized at the party, and were therefore not in play. You know, that last sentence, which seems so harmless there in print, almost caused us to lose a Commissioner at 1997's Dead Pool Party. If you weren't there, you can't imagine the fun you missed. Even if you were, it's still pretty hard to believe.
