Pretty cool. Including state cabin stays and bass pro shop packages. Really neat thing. And through that process, I'm pleased today to announce a winner. Michael Waugh, a night shift coal miner from Clarksburg... caught his mountain monster trout on the Sutton Lake of the Elk River. So really neat thing that he was able to do. And we want to congratulate Michael Waugh for winning this monster trout contest. So a lot of good things on the horizon for West Virginia. (21:53–22:05)
