Kelly.     Afterwards, the contestants strutted their stuff in the towel contest.  For shock effect, Flint wore two towels when it was his turn causing “fright in the eyes of audience members as I dropped my first towel,” Flint said.  Lentz came out on stage with a wife beater on and attempted to rip it off, failed and just pulled it over his head.  Scott appeared wrapped in a bear rug-like towel. The last event before the final cut was the eveningwear contest.  Even though most candidates wore their Sunday best suits, Omurtag went retro while Flint was dressed in a tuxedo with a cane and a top hat.  Scott was decked out in a one dollar, 70’s, satin, bell-bottomed, baby blue suit.   Matt Scott, Mr. RHS 1999.     At this point, the judges, Mullin and junior Heather Estey, decided on three finalists, Turco, Hinton and Scott.  As the audience awaited their verdicts, Stu-Co projected a Power Point presentation composed of old pictures of all the Mr. RHS contenders.     Each rival was then asked a question.  Turco was asked how he would help world hunger, Hinton was asked to predict his future, and Scott was asked how he would better the world.  “I would first win the lottery, then buy a million flower seeds and sprinkle them all over the world,” Scott said.     In the end, Scott was dubbed Mr. RHS.  Turco received second runner up leaving Hinton with first runner up.  Scott “Never, ever, ever!” imagined himself as being Mr. RHS.  With his $100, Scott is going to, “Buy a $100 dollars worth of butterflies and spread them throughout the city.”  The school and community were blessed with yet another successful Mr. RHS.
