If ANYONE works for one of the sponsors, they shouldn't be allowed to participate and if ANYONE works for a weigh station they should not be able to weigh their fish at that shop. Seems like pretty simply and logical rules. Isn't Rob a rep or salesman or something for Quantum? I remember reading somethign over on the Edge forum when he got the job and being very jealous that he was working in the industry while I sit behind a desk all day at a law firm.
I believe you are correct, he works for Quantum IIRC.

So, like the disclaimer in most contest everyone is eligible 'cept for those that work for XYZ and its sponsors and affiliates and cat's veterinarian. I can see how that goes and understand it. Maybe he'll hit powerball and can fish the cup again. 'Til then I don't think it is a conspiracy (though if he hits Powerball we'll know the fix was in with the lottery).

Good point on weighing at shops other than where you work.

I have no idea if OTW has that rule but it has been a rule at the SWE.

As Toby said, simple and logical, whether it's an official rule or not.
