    Tomorrow, starting at around Noon, pacific time, the finals start. Chad is competing in the number 2 spot, so he should be up at around 12:45 PT or 1:45 MT. The whole event should take around 3.5 hours. Apart from that, it is a do-over from today.

    So what happens now? Is the next round tomorrow?

    As an avid Myriade fan, I'm glad to see Anthony make it. Great guy, great coffee shop - a must-visit for coffee lovers in or visiting Montreal, Quebec.
