Congratulations to all of the Gangplank Fat Off participants! A special bit of gratitude also goes out to those auditing the event, cheerleaders of participants, and those forced to listen to discussions of calories and sore muscles. In celebration of the finale of this monumental event, it seems only appropriate to have a feast. On October 8 at Noon, come on out to Gangplank for a meal of epic proportions...pot luck style. Whip up your grandma's noodle koogle, or grab cupcakes from the store - it doesn't matter. Let's just stuff our faces!

Pam Slim will be interviewing Gary Vaynerchuk via Skype about his new book Crush It, live from Gangplank. Rather than conduct the interview alone from her boring home office in the suburbs of Mesa, she thought it would be a lot more fun and interactive to involve the community.

The interview will be from 11:30-12:00, and later posted on Pam's blog for all to see.
