Of course, the night was early which could have explained why notables such as Christine 'Bug' Blair, attorney John Silva, mechanic Larry 'Wartman' Warton, half the Newman Wreck Center staff, the Newman kids Cassie and Noah, an array of Newman Jitter Joint employees and Newman slave Miguel Rodriquez were not seen not to mention police detective Hank Weber, adoption agency representative Lorena Davis, Abbott house squatter PainMe Johnson and said to be on the singing circuit (who believes it) Danny Romalotti, his son Daniel and former wife, Phyllis Abbott or her current beau, Damon Porter.

Most surprising guest who should have been invited but wasn't and didn't attend was local 'hero' Kevin Fisher.

Most oddest guest who should have been at the ball but wasn't was Katherine Sterling's granddaughter, Mac Browning.

The Most Annoying guest award went to Abby Carlton when the six-year-old couldn't stop talking about the "horsey" she made out of silly putty for "daddy #2" (Victor) who has repeatedly said he keeps said horsey on his wreck center desk.

The Most Bizarre announcement award went to Jack Abbott who said he's taking his rarely seen son Kyle and young Abby to a Cub's game next week and even had the forethought to purchase advance tickets without first checking with the kid's parents but assumed that since grade-school is out that day - for the always convenient "teacher's workshop" - it wouldn't be a problem.

The Most Thankful it didn't happen award went to Cameron Kirsten for not strolling through the place and not have but a few of the Newmans notice that he'd somehow returned from the dead. Unlike the famous Masquerade Ball, David Kimball didn't crash the party by trying to kill Danny Romalotti, Cricket Blair and Nina Webster. The only thing that died at the Harvest Ball were the rats served up as lasagna.

The Most Stupid award went to Gina Roma. At the ball alone, the former RoadKill Cafe owner turned manager of Genoa City's Athletic Supporter was at the ColonRoom acting somewhat like a host, and pleading with guests to enjoy themselves. God only knows who was slinging hash at the AS in Roma's place.

As for who, exactly, put on the Harvest Ball nobody is saying and for good reason. Unlike the Arts Society Gala which took months to prepare, the ball was thrown together at the last minute and will go down in the record books as an affair to forget.
