Yeah, I liked the pageant better when it was on a major network, and was just a NORMAL pageant (sans the reality TV components and add-ons that are supposed to make it "exciting.")
But I suppose that was before it stopped getting the ratings...

At least nobody ended up doing a Miss Teen (?) South Carolina and babbling on about maps and "the Iraq." Poor girl.

I was really pulling for Georgia, she was my FAVE. But she ended up 1st runner up though, and that's good.

Was anyone else surprised to hear how little the scholarships are? I caught it at 3rd Runner Up - $15,000. She probably spent more on her clothes!

That's not even enough for a YEAR at some private schools.

I guess it's a hard sell - people have only so many charity dollars to spend. Who are you going to give them to: the USO, Juvenile Diabetes, or Miss America?

True, and most people figure that the Miss America contests are such that they have other scholarship opprtunities avaliable since they're so academically accomplished (or they have parents who can assist them with college tuition).
