There were not enough contestants to hold the Alliance pageant, but suddenly a new local has sprung up in Hastings? How does that happen? Will they have enough contestants? Will it be an official or unofficial local? And what happened to the Chadron contestant? Her picture is not on the Miss Nebraska website anymore. Did she get DUI/MIP like the previous one?
