I feel bad now... Chris is a good guy... so I want to change my vote to allow him to slide. Honestly, it could have been a photo, with a flashlight, in the dark, and closed up and it would have qualified. We are comparing 1st pic and final pic anyway so who cares what they look like in between.
However, I joined a growout contest with rules... and well bending them wasn't on the first page LOL STEVE!
