I met these two characters a couple of years back at my very first Stoneleigh.  They played a very key role in all aspects of the competition and Focus.  They helped set it up, run it, and tear it down and they stayed until the very last case had been packed up.  As you will hear, Sam has a family background in theater production. So he is the reason we could all see underneath that giant canopy. He set up all the lights and ran all the audio for the announcements.  Every morning before we arrived, Jamie Hughes was there ahead of us, and had all the fires lit and ready to go for the competition that day.  Last year, Danny was busy with his duties as the chief steward, so he put Jamie in charge of helping me to retrieve and schedule guests, as well as just overall keeping me watered and fed.

Over the past couple of years it has been fun to get to know these two characters. Whenever they work together, the banter is unending and always comical.  So, I thought, let's put them together and do an interview.  I will say the cutting room floor was covered when we were done editing this one.  We just took out a few parts to protect the identities of those involved in the stories of their debauchery. Fear not though, we still left a lot in.  Please excuse the occasional cuss word here and there if you're sensitive to that.  Overall though, we covered the gamut of horseshoeing, from silly to serious. It is always a pleasure to run into these two gentlemen, and I look forward to next year.  I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
