Congratulations to the squirrels — our Capitol Hilll Seattle Tourney 2006 champions. The nut-burying varmints outpaced the Slog by a slim 28 votes — 563 to 535.

To the victors, we present a championship trophy and a 10 lb bag of unshelled walnuts (city varmint feeding prohibitions be damned). To the runners-up, we have a 5 lb bag of unshelled walnuts with your name on it.

Below, you can see the final vote tally as well as the entire tourney bracket. The impressive squirrels had to overcome raccoons, two streets and the Slog to get to the top. We hope you enjoyed following along.
