Footstock 2010 was this past weekend and Marc Donahue of the Freeman Funk Footers wins the Open Division!
After coming from the losers bracket, then beating Keith St. Onge, Marc was in the championship round against Peter Fleck. Marc needed two wins against Fleck in order to claim the crown. After Marc and Peter went a record breaking 5 1/4 8's, Peter fell which meant there would be one more run to determine the champ. Donahue and Fleck went at it again, 1, 2, then 3 1/2 8's later it was Marc Donahue, the last man standing, as the 2010 Footstock Open Division champion!!!
Here's the video of the Final run. Thanks to Dan Tanis!
