FantasyFest Homemade Bikini Contest

Every year at this time Key West holds its annual celebration of decadence known as FantasyFest. One of the highlights is the Homemade Bikini Contest at the Hog's Breath Saloon, where contestants compete wearing bikinis they create themselves. Frontal nudity is grounds for disqualification, but as you can see there is much leeway given.

Through a radio contest, I managed to win a seat at the judges table. The pass I won included free drinks all night as well as entry into the pre- and post-contest parties in the upstairs VIP lounge.

Apologies for the blurriness of some of these, I was busy trying to keep score as I was taking the pics. Unfortunately my camera's battery died before the contest was over. Lesson learned.

In case it matters, the winner was the girl wearing the white teacup bikini.
