Posted by madirose at November 8, 2008, 12:01 pmcan i have the list of names of the participants of the buglasan festival king and queen pageant? and the winners too… please.
Posted by colormeblack at November 14, 2008, 1:25 pmWe’re just wonderin’ why BUGLASAN KING of BAYAWAN CITY wasn’t crowned as BUGLASAN KING considering the fact that He has the same award w/ BUGLASAN QUEEN??? Y MANJUYOD??? we smell sumthing fishy! BE FAIR!
Posted by MR.FAIR at December 22, 2008, 9:40 pmMr. Fair, there were factors to consider in judging the winner.It’s just that MANJUYOD is the best so he won the title as Buglasan King. There’s nothing fishy with this result because everybody knows it’s fair!
