42BELOW Cocktail Cup at the Golden Nugget send two bartenders to National Finals!

Monday night the 42BELOW event was absolutely amazing! The two winners were Mark Kiyojima of Progressive Bar Las Vegas and Red Rock Resort and Jason Hughes of Chandelier bar at the Cosmopolitan, who placed first and second respectively. Attached are pictures of the winners. I have a great variety of pictures, so let me know if you want me to send you event pictures.

Mark and Jason will now move on to compete at the national finals held in New York on Feb 27. From that group, three (3) U.S. champions will be chosen to represent the United States in the 2011 42BELOW Cocktail World Cup finals in New Zealand March 14 to 18, 2011.

As you know, the 42BELOW Cocktail World Cup was held at Gold Diggers Lounge at the Golden Nugget. The theme was "Carnival of the Cocktail." Guests enjoyed corn dogs, popcorn, snow cones, candy, festive 42BELOW cocktails and magic tricks by a local magician.

The judges were Darby Kelly of the Wynn (one of the top two Las Vegas finishers last year), Ray Srp of Savile Row, who is a member of the United States Bartenders Guild since May 2001 and founding board member of the USBG-Nevada Chapter,  and last but not least Don Chareunsy, arts and entertainment editor for the Las Vegas Sun.
