I know of one person at least that went to the cannabis cup last year.
I'm sure there are others that have gone to. But I don't have a clue.

Damn I'd love to attend the Cannabis Cup so bad. I have for many years now actually. It's too bad that it seems like Amsterdam has passed its prime though, shrooms are illegal now, weed is more restricted.
Oh well, it'd still be a hell of a time though. Enjoy!

I go to the cup almost every year. I stay with friends though and have some pretty good connections with people that are in the seed business so I get some pretty good deals.
My only problem with the cup is that your average club in Cali has better bud then the stuff that wins the cup. (That is not a joke the Amsterdam genetics are not even coming close to ours right now)

Don't Americans bring their stuff from the clubs over to be entered? If they're so obviously better then why don't they always win it? Cannabis Cup politics? I've read about how Barney and Arjan bribe the judges with tons of free shit.

Weed is more restricted? Woah! Since when?
Dried mushrooms are illegal. The Sclerotia variants are fricken in every headshop/smartshop there. Also, lol.... I mean it's Amsterdam man. I'm sure you can still get shrooms there - I mean, other than coke and e, there isn't really any other big illegal-drug market in Amsterdam - now that shrooms are illegal, I rekon they're more available now than ever.

All the cannabis cup is is an advertisement for High Times and the seed companies. If you look at how the judges smoke and vote it is obvious that they would not be able to tell the highs given by the different strains apart. Green House wins every year, and from what I have heard on similar forums is that GH is nothing special.

Well you'd prob enjoy it here. Most yanks do. I think it's pretty safe to say though that most of the people my own age I know are fairly bored of the place. An annual holiday out is needed, at the least.

Yeah, what nasty bastard thought of dusting weed with glass? I mean surely there's something else that'd give a similar effect without fucking people's lungs up. I have to say, the quality of weed and hash to buy here's pretty low. Unless you know someone who knows how to grow.

Going to the cup is cool but it has nothing to do with the cup itself. Just fun to gather samples and talk to the people in the industry. That and smoking a half a million strains.
Now there have been a few of the Cali strains entered in the cup by a company called Apothecary Seeds. Every one of their strains have placed in the cup. I tend to think the winners of the cup aren't the ones who pay the most for advertising in high times (which is what I use to think) but the judges are just normal people who win a contest in high times and get to judge.
Here is what the key to winning is in my opinion or what is going on. The winners are usually the guys that put on the biggest show. Huge displays giving out lots of samples and pretty much kind of making the judges feel like they owe them. (I hope I got that point across).
