EaterAZ is looking for a few good taco judges

The people behind the local food blog EaterAZ did a barbecue fest last year, and then looked around for new challenges.

They noticed that the taco field was wide open; the first Arizona Taco Festival is scheduled for October. Now they need judges:

As you know, we are producing the first taco festival in the history of the world. (No, really, it’s never been done. Isn’t that freakin’ crazy?!) Because we wanted to keep the judging fair and balanced (meaning blind and qualified), we launched an organization called the National Taco Association. Consider it the Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) of tacos. After attending a brief class on taco judging and score keeping, you will hold one of the most important positions at the Arizona Taco Festival on October 9. A judges duties are grueling–-you will hang out in a tent from 10AM to 4PM, eating free tacos and marking scores and having fun.
