THE CONTEST

The UglyTie Contest is an annual event dedicated to friendship among men. Where lives become more complex as we age, and friendships come and go with each passing year, UglyTie is set to keep the bond between friends and extend a great call of loyalty and camaraderie in a single day.
The Annual UglyTie Contest is held on the 3rd Saturday (with exceptions) of the new year. It shall start at 10:00 am (with exceptions) with an early dinner served at 3:00 pm (with exceptions). The contest is a member-only event and shall include members of UglyTie and member invites. Each man shall contribute a fee to the contest in the amount of $40, where $5 shall be subtracted from his share toward a purse for the winning tie; the remainder is contributed to the dinner with a meal costing no more than $25 and the gratuity is aimed at near 100% with added contributions.
The event includes a structured itinerary, the reading of the rules, and other sub-events that can not be disclosed to the public – only a chapter leader and his cabinet.
