OK, you really expect us to believe that you went to all of the states you mentioned and now are commenting on their production, etc? Please try to learn a few things before you begin to criticize anyone. You need to know that MUO charges HUGE franchise fees to the state directors and the directors have to try to make enough money from the entry fees to pay MUO and the rest of the bills before they can even THINK about the prize package. Some state directors charge huge amounts to enter and run a simple "cattle show", whereas others try to keep the sponsor fees affordable and, therefore, get less contestants because they don't have the huge advertising/marketing budget. Personally I'd rather be charged a smaller amount to enter and have a more personal and rewarding experience at the state level than pay over $1,000 to be run through like a sheep with 150 other girls for two minutes and have a 1 in 150 chance to win ANYTHING. The ultimate goal, of course, is to get to compete at the national level but the state competition should be a good and rewarding experience as well and not something you have to mortgage your house to enter.
