The                nation saw an end to the undefeated gold medalist flute choir from                Montana last night at the First Annual Flute Choir Competition.                Team Dog, or "The Kool Flootz" out-fluted "The American                Sissy Patrol" by a score of 494 to 365. It's been 8 years that                the Sissies have conquered this event, but the dogs took the crown                after what some viewers call the ugliest competition they've ever                seen. 
"This                was the worst night of my life," says Jane Haggerty of Dilltown,                "I brought my kids for a fun night of fluting, but I had to                tell them to walk home because of the horrific performance by the                dog team. I've never seen so much blood or heard so much cursing                in my life."
The                Kool Flootz practice "intense fluting," which is an ancient                tradition started by dinosaurs. It involves heavy music, mostly                distorted, with a rain storm of blood to increase the effect of                vandalism while fluting. The cursing is a modern addition to the                art, but nevertheless people love the act and will pay anything                to see a professional fluter perform it.
