FAUX PAS LODGE INVITATIONAL RULES


Only persons who register for the “Rodeo” and either receive an entry receipt or are listed on the “Rodeo’s” list of eligible participants are eligible to participate. All participants and fish must comply with the rules and regulations of the State of Louisiana governing the recreational harvest of saltwater fish in 2007. All fish entered into competition for prizes must have been caught and landed by the participant on rod, hook and line exclusively. Boundaries are the territorial waters of the State of Louisiana, including Louisiana’s common boundary waters with Texas and Mississippi as defined by Louisiana law and the extension of Louisiana boarders seaward 200 miles. Fish taken outside “Rodeo” boundaries, from private impoundments or other waters not legally accessible to the general public, will not be eligible for entry. All winning fish shall be determined by weight. Only weights indicated on the official “Rodeo” scale will be accepted. In the event of a tie, the fish that was weighed-in first shall be declared the winner. The participant on whose behalf the fish is weighed must catch all fish. The officially appointed Weigh-master or Assistant Weigh-master must weigh all fish entered on the official “Rodeo” scale during the time established for the weigh-in. All fish entered shall be weighed only once, unless in the determination of the Weigh-master, a second weighing is necessary to obtain an accurate weight. The Weigh-master or Assistant Weigh-master may mark all fish entered in the “Rodeo”, such as by clipping a tail or fin. No transfer of fish among “Rodeo” boats shall be allowed. The time for weigh-in shall be from 5:00 pm until 8:00 pm on Thursday, July 26th, Friday, July 27th and 3:00 pm until 6:00 pm on Saturday, July 28th. All fish must be entered and weighed at the official “Rodeo” weigh station. No frozen spoiled, gutted, altered, or mutilated fish will be eligible for entry. Any person, including minors, entering a prize-winning fish or claiming a prize must agree to take a polygraph test, and each person entering the “Rodeo” agrees to submit to a polygraph test administered by a polygraphist certified by the Louisiana State Polygraph Board. Any polygraph test required by these rules shall be taken at a time, place and before the certified polygraphist designated by the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational. Failure to take or to pass the required polygraph test shall result in disqualification. All travel expenses for such polygraph examination are to be paid by entrant. The decision of the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational in its sole discretion shall be final on any and all matters. In the event of any litigation between a participant and the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational, and/or any of the other sponsoring entities that arises, out of any aspect whatsoever of the “Rodeo”, the losing party in said litigation shall be bound to pay all attorney’s fees, expenses of litigation, court costs and other costs incurred by the winning party in said litigation. The entire responsibility for valid entry and eligibility rests solely on the participant. Each participant is responsible for knowing the rules of the “Rodeo” and, by participating in the “Rodeo”, agrees to comply with and abide by all rules of the “Rodeo”.
RELEASE, HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
It is expressly understood that all participants in the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational Fishing Rodeo enter at their own risk, and that the Faux Pas Lodge owners, sponsors and all persons connected directly or indirectly with the operation of said rodeo shall be exempt from any liability for libel, slander, loss, damage, negligence, harm injury or death suffered by any participants, boat captains, crew members, vessels and equipment which may occur during or in conjunction with the rodeo. By rodeo entry, the captain or owner consents that the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational Fishing Rodeo may use without payment or restriction, any photographs in which he/she or any of their crew may appear for any purpose what so ever, including, but not limited to resale, advertising, commercial or promotional material. The captain, owners, and his crew further release the Faux Pas Lodge Invitational Rodeo owners, sponsors and all persons from injury, loss or damage that may result from participation in this rodeo. I realize that the emphasis of this fishing rodeo is mostly for social aspects and I agree to abide by all rules of the rodeo and all fishing regulations of the State of Louisiana.
