5th Annual Bloody Mary Contest set May 20 at The Starboard

May 18, 2018

The boldest, bravest, and bloodiest Marys on the East Coast will be presented at The Starboard's 5th Annual Bloody Mary Contest sponsored by Tito's at 3 p.m., Sunday, May 20 in Dewey Beach. Bloody builders from up and down the Delaware coast will be concocting their best bloodies and $500 and bragging rights are on the line.

This year, The Starboard staff prepares to defend their home turf against some supreme competition.

Bethany Blues, fresh off an overall title win from the Seacrets Bloody Mary Contest, is ready to see if they can reignite the magic and take down The Starboard's home advantage.

Starboard owner Steve "Monty" Mozntgomery loves good competition among friends. "After Blues won at Seacrets, I told our staff, 'Well, you can't win them all.' And, as happy as I am for Bethany Blues, you know The Starboard has a killer bloody, so we'll see what happens on the 20th," he said.

Five main judges will sip their way through several rounds of bloodies to judge in a variety of areas, from taste to presentation, and will dole out kudos to the winners. Of course, no Starboard bloody contest would be complete without emcee Dickie Heidenberger decked out in his all-red suit, and tables will be added so customers can join in the judging.
