Back in February, we let everyone know that Swadley’s BBQ – Oklahoma’s “world-famous” smoker of dry meats and excessive management fees – was trying to win back local credibility by sponsoring 405 Rag’s special “Best Of 405” advertorial competition.
As a result of the sponsorship, Swadley’s was comically nominated and highlighted in categories ranging from “Best BBQ” to “Best Breakfast” to even “Best Chef.” For some reason, they were totally left out of “Best Local Government Grifter.”
Well, apparently the ballots have been stuffed and the votes counted, and 405 Rag has released the winners of this year’s totally credible pay-to-play competition. Sadly, Swadley’s failed to win any of the categories they paid money to be in.
