Queenstown spoofing championships

This year’s Queenstown spoofing championships came thick with banter as well as a test of the competitors’ coin-guessing abilities.

Friday night marked the 19th year of the event and about 30 contestants gathered at the Boat Shed Cafe and Bistro in Frankton.

Organiser Murray Cockburn, a 30-year veteran of the game, reckoned it was "the most diverse group of spoofers" ever for Queenstown, as the event included players from Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.
