This was a thrilling tourney! JWong vs Daigo in the SF4 grand finals was an awesome match to watch. Justin pulled out some Fei Long magic, but it wasn't enough to win the set sadly. (Sigh, I really wanted to see Justin finally beat Daigo!)
On another note, I found an awesome youtube video of Daigo being picked up from the airport before "Seasons Beatings", he talks about the tournaments in Japan compared to the US and Street Fighter related stuff while someone translates for him. Pretty interesting stuff!

UPDATE: A few of my friends from South Carolina made the trip to take part. Matthew Seifert (U-Volt) chronicled his experience via Twitter for those back home (like myself) who couldn't make it. Here are some of the pics he took and posted using his phone.
