Connie Christian, Executive Director of Florida Keys SPCA, added, �We were thrilled with the results and we�re so happy about all the participants who put in so much time and effort to help us help the animals.�

The competition was fierce as 39 teams from Keys bars and restaurants were pumped up to win in the steamy afternoon sun. Excitement was high as the 7-person teams ran the obstacle course � poured and served a margarita, recycled bottles, rolled and tapped a keg, and drank beer.
