Wow, interesting observations!! I'd like to see the responses from the ITEA committee about this.

I'd like to say one thing though about the tuba throwing contests (TubaMania & ITEC). ITEC, TubaMania plus other conferences are full on. Tubas and Euphoniums, lessons, masterclasses, concerts and on and on. Absolutely fantastic. Something like a hurling contest really is unconventional and strays away from "normal conference programming". Thus providing a great outlet from all the formal scenes of the conference. A change is as good as a holiday they say! ;-)

Yes, we should use our own instrument in the "tossing" competition. Just imagine if we used every other instrument other than the tuba? We'd have a "Tossing Conference" with a bit of tuba euph stuff to break the boredom. ;-p
