Glass Games
Recap
Hey there, it’s Matty White, creator and Master of Ceremonies of the CHAMPS Glass Games. This is a vision I started over 7 years ago with Jeff and Peter, the owners of CHAMPS Trade Show. They allowed me the opportunity to create a multi-show competition full of creative games that allowed glass blowers to earn a spot in the CHAMPS Masters Finals at the winter CHAMPS Trade Show and a place in The CHAMPS Hall of Flame.

With CHAMPS having 5 shows a year, we started this year's qualifying Glass Games with an Emerging Artist competition at the Atlantic City show. Over 115 artists entering to get one of 24 coveted spots, and only 3 won the chance to compete in our field of 40 glass blowers in this winter’s finals. Jeff and Peter

Glass Games Recap Next came the 7th Annual CHAMPS Summer Glass Games, where we get the bulk of our contestants. This year was the biggest yet. We had 10 events to enter. There were 4 smaller events, Cap-it, Win Lose or Draw, Bug-out, and Shots, Shots, Shots. Each blower had an hour and a half to make their creations with one twist. Each contestant had to use a National Torch (beginners torch) which made for a level playing field. This made for an interesting competition. The Other 6 events were a bit longer at two and a half hours and the blowers could use their own torches. The Games began on Tuesday after 2 days of setting up kilns, gas lines, tanks, and tables. The contestants and the Glass Games staff were all ready to start as soon as the Fire Marshal signed off on the arena. The contestants began filling their time slots for the different events. The 2 days of competition flew by with everyone doing their best. When day 3 came around the judges, Cameron Towers, Joey Maliquenes, and Don Chilly Ortega started to examine the pieces from the different events. After hours of deliberation and a close look at style and execution, they came up with winners. A few people shined more than others making a couple hopes and dreams come true. There were definitely a few that stood out to me as some remarkable stories. First was Mako, one of the Emerging Artist competitors, who came to Atlantic City and put on a great show with a big crowd watching. He made a large glowing jelly fish that just missed the top three in that competition. This, I think, lit a flame for him to come to the summer games for some redemption and that exactly what he got. He came ready and crushed it. I was impressed with his will and determination. He had his A game in Vegas, placing first in two events, Best Whip with an X-wing fighter rig and in So Cute with his cuttlefish, both had nice UV accents. Shaggy was able to place in two events again this year making him a 14-time medal winner. (can you say, Phelps?) In Bug-Out he made a Mantis that earned him a silver medal and in Happy Meal he got a bronze for his huge fruit bowl. Next, we saw Bill Burrows return to the games and double medal with a gold in Happy Meal, making a sweet carrot Sherlock and a silver in Old school. Ryan Rosburg came out and threw down grabbing two silver medals in Cap It with a flawless 12

Glass Games Recap burger and in Happy Meal with the Vegas classic Winner winner chicken dinner display. There was one more double medal winner this year with Harley Morales always coming with his best. He got silver in the team event with Terry Sharp and a bronze in Smoke N Float with a tentacle rig.
SHAGGY aka Phelps
Let's not forget about the ladies this year. We had 4 women qualify for the Masters in summer this year. Blossom Knight and Heather Baird (The Flame Princess) both get in for their efforts in So Cute and Tessa Tchante (Hart of Glass) make a great showing in Win Lose or Draw. Finally, we watched Shayla Behrman (Windstar) return to claim gold in Smoke and Float, making it into the masters final 2 years in a row. Way to go ladies!!! A few more shout outs go to Sir Pyro, Hic Dogg, Terry Sharp, Hex, Orian glass, Erkel’s Glass, Fish, and Byron Keirnan for getting back to the masters again. It shows they got the skills that pay the bills and are continuing to crush it. Oh and I cannot forget Clayball (that bug was dope) getting back to the masters after taking a break. Big shout out to Slim for not giving up and winning gold in Cap It, Eli Mazet for finally coming out getting in the masters, and Luke the Drifter for his gold winning Shot glass. Congratulations to all the other medal winners. I look forward to seeing you in February.
Eli Mazet
Last but definitely not least, thank you Turtle, Masters winner and a member of the Hall of Flame, for coming out and keeping all the blowers honest with his 3 Honorable mentions, which showed if people were slipping. He was right there to reclaim what was once his. Well done my friend. What a Champs Summer Glass Games it was. Thanks to all the artists for putting yourself out there to compete and putting on a great show for the buyers. Lastly, don’t forget there are 3 spots up for grabs in Denver and 1 final spot available in Orlando. Stay in the loop and sign up. Both Colorado and Orlando feature games that you can create your piece at home and bring to the show, so get to it!

This summer the smoke shop world met for the annual CHAMPS Las Vegas Summer show. It was a hot one, not only outside, but on the sales floor and at the Glass Games arena. This show followed the trend and again set some new attendance records from previous years. Weeks before the show opened, the show had sold out. It was no surprise that this would be a good show. Vegas summer brings with it an entirely unique vibe in contrast to the Winter show.

The best vendors in the world come out for the summer show. Companies like Greenlane, Party Nuts, HBI, Glow, ABR Images, Blackball, and Pipeline were all there in full effect. I swear to you that these companies are all on point. I have never experienced so much straight up professionalism as what I got from them during my visits to their booths. The products that you can fill a store with these days are amazing. I remember way back to the first CHAMPS Show, or CTA as it was once called. So few booth but so much innovation. Now if you fast forward to 2017, the innovation is amazing. You can’t turn around without finding something new and unique. There is something for everyone and their brother. This summer was no exception. This summer seemed to be a lot busier than previous years. The stores came out in droves with multiple staff members all here to buy up all the coolest items. With new Vapes from people like G-pen and fresh glass from all the competing artists, you could definitely make your store the stand out shop when your local college is back in session. Shops Like Modern Age in Athens GA, they buy at CHAMPS and have won Best Smoke Shop in their local paper multiple times. These are the type people that drive the industry.

When it comes to glass, CHAMPS often gets some of the hottest new artists and all the best production companies you can imagine. Companies like Matt White Studios, Empire Glass, Jellyfish, and Chameleon Glass have your full line of glass hand pipes covered. Artist like Shayla Windstar, Hic Dogg, Shubbah, Rocko and many more glass artists were on hand with lines of affordable heady work.

All in all, it was a great show with very few issues and lots of money being made. Vendors reported better than usual summer sales and I personally saw more buyers this year. I saw new buyers and met some really great people. The Tuscany Suites really treated us well with their very tolerant staff. Make sure you tip your maid! The summer show is not for everyone but it sure beats sitting at home in middle America Facebooking and Instagramming. After all summer or winter, it is Vegas, right? 24-hour gambling and fun, more neon and glitz than any place on earth! Air conditioning everywhere! I will definitely be back next year. See you there...

Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights event is one of the best events in Orlando during the Halloween rush. I suggest grabbing a can of Coca-Cola that has the coupon and saves a ton! If you want to hit a water park and have a wet day, hit Volcano Bay Waterpark for less than $75. Locals tell me the weather is perfect around Halloween for outdoor activities and it might even get a little chilly at night.

It will be hot (80-84 degrees) and humid (75-80% relative humidity). The locals suggest shorts and t-shirts or flowing skirts and bikini tops. It’s always good to bring a hat if you plan on spending time outdoors!

If you missed the room discounts or your budget can’t take it, check your favorite travel page as you can find 4 star rooms for great deals in October. Some consider it the “off season”.

Recreational Cannabis use is legal in Denver. This does not mean that it is legal to smoke any and everywhere. Most hotels are non-smoking so be sure to take all the proper precautions. Bars and Restaurants are also mainly non-smoking. If they allow smoking, it is usually outdoors or on the top floors of the place, so check those out before sparking up.

Parking… One of the things about Downtown Denver is the cost and availability of parking. I say this with the clearest understanding after many years of staying in Denver… If you can avoid bringing a car… avoid it. The train from the airport to downtown is $9 and takes less time than driving. Although the hotels are more expensive near the convention center… it balances out if you don’t have to pay $30 a day for parking. Everything is within walking distance and you can often find pedicabs roaming the streets.

Denver is a cornucopia of food options from fresh farm to table restaurants to crazy sausage places. To mention a couple of my favorites… Syrup has an extensive collection of house made syrups, so if you like pancakes or waffles smothered in syrup, hit this joint for breakfast. If you prefer the savory taste of Biscuits and gravy, hit the Denver Biscuit Company! The Biscuits and Gravy are southern style and delicious. For dinner, if you like German food, hit up Rhein Haus - a German Beer garden that serves the most authentic German sausage ever. Some amazing imports are to be found here for sure!

It can be brisk in September. The high average is 75 degrees and the low average of 44 degrees. Be prepared by bringing some warm socks and a hoody or two. I would also suggest shorts for the day time as it can get pretty warm.
5
If you are looking to take a nice quiet walk or take your daily stroll, the South Platte River Walk is a great spot. My cousin turned me onto this place some years ago. It’s kinda scenic with a fair amount of people enjoying it. Definitely a nice little get away from the city and trade show life. CHAMPS SHOW MAGAZINE
Looking Forward Denver & Orlando
By Bernie Boulders
I was asked in this issue to look into the future and discuss what to look forward to at the Denver Colorado show Sept 19-21 and the newest location Orlando Florida October 27-29th! I asked around the CHAMPS oďŹƒce to see what people were saying.
Reports have a great show forming in Denver as per usual. Added bonus, the folks at Glow have announced a great networking event bringing back their famous AfterGlow Event. I talked to Jason at Glow and he assured me it will be one for the records. This event always brings out the best and most fun memories. I am sure not to miss it. It was great to see the move to September. The weather is nicer and it is a better time to travel. It is a great time to walk around the city and look at all the artistic architecture. If you love live music like I do, there are a plethora of great acts around town that week, checking listings you have Muse, Bucket Head, Damian Marley and 30 Seconds to Mars among others scheduled around town that week.

Looking Forward Denver & Orlando
By Bernie Boulders
When I brought up Orlando to anyone I spoke to in the last month, I heard the same thing, “I am so excited about Orlando!” From the staff to the stores and vendors, everyone wants to check out Orlando. I plan on staying and catching some of the Wild Orlando Halloween fun!
Disney World
Orlando was built for adults and kids alike to have a great time. It hosts more tourism than almost any other town in America. With Places Like Epcot Center, Walt Disney World, and Universal Studios in town, there is never a shortage of things to do on the week after the show. This is the first show our industry is putting on at the Gaylord Palms Resort and convention center. It will also be the first show with a night of Evening Hours. In a small change from the usual, the first day of the show falls on Friday the 27th and will be open from 6:30-10:30 for select buyers. Saturday and Sunday will be back to our regularly scheduled 11am-6pm.

The Orlando nightlife is very exciting with many places to... as the Beastie Boys said the best… “Shake Your Rumpa”. Speaking of Music, if live concerts are your thing and you can come a night early you could join us at Guitar genius Santana will be taking the stage on the 26th, and plenty of bars have live music at night. If you want to try something unique hit up ICEBAR where the bar is actually made of ice! If you are a vape fan the new spot Vape n Brew might just be for you. Well I know I am excited to see you all there. Who wants to go trick or treating?
