I can tell you right now, I wouldn't have been sticking around for any event that was running two hours late.
I'd actually be interested in the stats of how many of these kids end up on the pole later in life.
I STILL don't quite understand how these things work (and I have known kids who do them). I don't really get how EVERY kid always ends up with a crown or a prize (even though some of the crowns are bigger if you win the higher title or something). There'll be like 3 kids in an age group and they'll all get a crown. How does that work?

One thing I realized while watching one of the epsodes - the "best eyes", "prettiest hair" and similar awards are only given to those kids whose parents paid extra to be in these "optional" contests. So if only one of the kids had entered the category, they win. I caught it on an episode last year, when the dad ended up entering the kid into the optionals after the he and the mom had decided not to (getting one more chance for a crown).
I just googled
beauty pageant fees "optionals" and found this application:
