Unless your the last weight to be weighed in. Then it sucks! We've had teammates who were done eating before we even weighed in. Been like that for the last couple years.
We get there before the 12:00 weigh in, they get split into their groups, then we wait till his group gets weighed in. We've gotten out of weigh ins just before 2:00 the last two years. You don't get rewarded for showing up early.
I didn't know there was a problem with state weigh ins? I like it the way it is. We show up on time, run in to weigh in, then in line for food. If we have to show up late, which has happened before because of an unexpected vet visit. We showed up, weighed in, and were in line for food.
