The ballots have been counted, and the votes have been totaled. We’ve finally got a winner in Scott’s Best Man Challenge! It was an incredibly close race with some fierce competition. All competitors were in top conditioning and I know it was a hard decision for the judges. Every one of the contestants could easily be the best man. This makes me feel good knowing that if a ring gets dropped, or if someone stumbles over a toast, there are two other fully capable groomsmen waiting and watching for their chance.
Candidates were judged in several events over the course of the challenge.

Kieran “The German Irish Rose” Leopold
Kieran now needs to get down to business with planning the bachelor party for real (the groomsmen can help here if they’d like), and brushing up on his toasting skills.
Thanks to all the candidates for putting up with this craziness. I’m glad that all of you will be there with Jess and me to celebrate the special day. And remember, if the best man goes down, the next in line needs to jump right in there (that’s why we’ve got 3!).
Good job to all candidates and Congrats Kieran!
This. Is. Awesome. Nice work.
