Every year that we have run Oktoberfest Obliteration we have included a German phrase on the event t-shirt.
Every year, we get asked repeatedly during the event what the phrase means in English. For some reason…no one asked us this year.
Odd, since right on the shirt was this announcement.
Es war gut wahrend er dauerte = It was good while it lasted.
After 4 very fun and successful years of our annual CrossFit competition, we are officially retiring Oktoberfest Obliteration.
We hope everyone that has ever participated as an athlete in our event had a good time and we want to thank everyone that ever volunteered in any capacity to help pull the events off. It goes without saying that the pouring of energy from the CrossFit community is what enables these events to take place and we can’t send out enough thanks to everyone that ever helped.
There may be other CrossFit Champions sponsored events in the future, but as far as Oktoberfest Obliteration goes…it was fun while it lasted but its time to move on.

Video still to come.
Oktoberfest Obliteration IV is in the bag!
As expected, our OOIV Committee, Judge Captains, Judges and Volunteers did an amazing job!
Many, many posts to come for sure (including pic galleries that you can pull pics from), but we wanted to be sure and post the Final Results right away.
Here are PDFs of the results by division.
Oktoberfest Obliteration IV Elite
Oktoberfest Obliteration IV TEAM
Oktoberfest Obliteration IV Scaled
Oktoberfest Obliteration IV Masters*
*One thing we found this morning as we looked at these final spreadsheets is that Maureen Triller and Fay Watson tied for 3rd place in the Masters Women division. Based on the rules of a tie, we look at highest individual event placements for highest to break the tie. Both Maureen and Fay had a 1st place finish. Fay then had a 2nd place finish and Maureen a 3rd place finish. Therefore, technically, Fay Watson should have been awarded the 3rd place overall. We have spoken to both athletes. Maureen will keep her 3rd place awards and we will be providing Fay Watson with the same 3rd place awards as well.
