Jamie Pedersen Wins!

Posted by on August 17 at 11:22 AM

Well, it’s all over—Jamie Pedersen has grabbed the crown!

At least according to a four year-old story in The Humboldt Independent.

Humboldt County Fair Queen Jamie Pedersen

Humboldt County Fair Queen Jamie Pedersen finished up duties at the local fair on Sunday evening and two days later was in Des Moines for the start of the Iowa State Fair… “I’ve met so many wonderful people at the Humboldt County Fair and the Iowa State Fair. Even if I hadn’t won at the Humboldt County Fair, I had the most fun. I made a lot of friends,” Pedersen said.

Some folks think Washington’s 43rd District race is crowded, but Iowa’s Jamie Pedersen faced a lot stiffer competition than Seattle’s Jamie Pedersen…

There were 17 candidates for Humboldt County Fair Queen, the most in recent history. Pedersen was named Miss Congeniality, the first award announced at coronation ceremonies.

“I figured I couldn’t be queen after winning that. I know it had to have been difficult for the judges. I couldn’t have picked one. Everyone had good points,” Pedersen said.

Dan, you rock! I wish I'd said that!

I don't know about you, but there's way too many signs out for all the candidates, some days I must pass more than 100.

Re: signs: Jamie Pedersen's are the most ruthlessly prevalent, but Jim Street's are the FUGLIEST.

Get it? His NAME is Street—LIKE A STREET!!!!!!

I keep tripping over knocked down Street signs ... and I'm not knocking them down, but someone is.

Fucking hilarious Dan!

Dan's been Googling Jamie Pedersen's name again...

The 43rd race is a clowncar.
