I have an interesting twist to tell on this tale. I just happen to win the concerto competition at the University of Akron this year. Anyway, the day after I won there were people who wanted to write letters to contest the competition because they said it was fixed. I was told this is common here when a tubist wins. I guess we are getting screwed all over. Often we don't get a fair shake by the judges but when we do and someone wins, it is because the competition was rigged not because the tubist won or so they say.
