Congratulations ABDC Blowup contest winners: Kid Bowser AND xxxCrashOverride!

There are 2 winners for the ABDC Blowup contest: Kid Bowser and xxxCrashOverride! Both answered all 10 blowup questions correctly, as did a few other people. And, I loved both of their tie-breaker entries and couldn't choose a favorite. So, I'll be buying Tshirts for both of them!

The tie-breaker was a challenge: write a clever and solvable clue for the name of an ABDC crew. Here are their entries; feel free to use the comments to provide the answers and discuss.
XXXCrashoverride's clue: 42° 16' 32.43"n, 78° 40' 14.38"w ! 
Kid Bowswer's clue: b y s  n d  g r l s  l c k n g  w h t  m t t r s

Next week, we'll start a new 12-week competition called "The Master Mix Contest", completely created by Dirtface X. Think you know your ABDC dance music? Prove it. Listen to a sample of an ABDC Master Mix, followed by a judge's comment about the routine, and identify the crew who performed it. The mixes are all available at District78.com, but the clips will vary from 20 seconds in the first few weeks, down to 3 seconds in the last weeks. In the event of a tie, we'll play a mix of 12 ABDC Master Mixes. Whoever can correctly identify the most routines (crew and song title) will be the winner. So, stay tuned! 

And, thanks again to "The 4th ABDC Judge" for creating the Blowup Challenge Contest!
