The World Cup Biathlon is comming to Fort Kent this year. Thats the town right next door to me. Its already getting pretty packed up here for people. It's a pretty small town with only about 1,000 people. The biathlon is the begenning of next week but many of the fans and athletes are here already. I guess there is already no rooms at all the Hotels by here!
Anyway I was just wondering if anyone followed this? I know it is the biggest watched winter sport over in Europe. I believe the Outdoor Life Network and also ESPN are comming up here to film it.
I checked on the site below and can't find any of the athletes. I wanted to get some in person autos (on custom index cards) but if I don't know who the people actaully are, it may not help, lol! Anyone know who is big in this sport?
