A Civil War-themed band, matching the curriculum topic, provided entertainment at the 2008 National competition. Across the street from the Hyatt Regency Orange County, many enjoyed their first In-N-Out burger. One of the most-talked about topics after competition was how close California and Wisconsin were in score. California won with 23.3 points.
