Round 4, Heat 1: Miss Chiefsplanet USA Tournament
 

Okay, at this point we've eliminated more than two-thirds of our contestants, and we're down to the Sweet 16. From here, we'll get down to the final ten as follows:

1. We'll have four heats with four contestants each.
2. The top two votegetters from each heat will move on.
3. The top two contestants who did not qualify via Step 2 will also move on.

From there, we'll cut from 10 to 5 to 3 to our very own Miss USA. We're almost there!

As an interesting bit of trivia, I've noticed a lot of success by southerners to this point, and check this out. I've noted how many entrants we have from this region and how many have made the Sweet Sixteen:

South - 11 of 17 survive (65%)
Midwest - 2 of 12 survive (16%)
Northeast - 1 of 9 survive (11%)
West - 2 of 13 survive (15%)

The Southern girls are destroying the other regions.

Anyway, onward and upward. In Round 4, I will present FOUR contestants, and you will pick your top TWO. We'll have four heats, and here's Heat 1. Godspeed, beautiful women.

Miss Alabama http://l.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/mRb...jpg_224858.jpg
Miss Hawaii http://l1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/pd...jpg_224908.jpg
Miss Louisiana http://l3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/qo...jpg_224914.jpg
Miss Montana http://l3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/db...jpg_224921.jpg

I have to go as follows:

#1 - Hawaii. I just love her jawline and innocent look.
#2 - Louisiana. I bet she knows her way around the back seat of a Camaro.
#3 - Alabama. She's fine, but I'm less into the sorority girl look.
#4 - Montana. I don't deny that she's attractive, but she's attractive in a vanilla way.

Weak heat compared to what the others will be

Other than Louisiana, pretty meh heat.

As a preview, Heat 2 is going to be a slugfest.

Ouch. My Hawaiian honey needs to make a big rally.

Alabama should not be in second place in this heat.

Alabama should be the clear #1, Montana should be the clear #4, and Hawaii and Louisiana should be battling it out for the #2 spot.

Pfft. Miss Montana should clearly win. Because she is from Montana and Montana is better than everywhere else in the world.

Living as I do in Sororityville, USA, every single woman in this competition outside of Michigan has "the sorority girl look." Every one of them.

They are not metal. Forget the bitches and chant.

Alabama, nodoubtaboutit.

Louisiana is my #1 in this heat. Montana wins a coin flip with Hawaii for #2.

I don't get the overwhelming love for Miss Louisiana, here. She's pretty, sure, but so are the rest of them. I just can't get over that ridiculous, stupid-looking expression on her face.

Hey, you idiots are getting this one right. Well done, guys.
