"We're just flooding it up right now. We've made it as pretty as it's going to be, and we're just going to get it flat," shared Icemaker Jason Braaten, "Then we'll get the ice worked in, and we'll be ready to go by Tuesday night."

"We're right on schedule. The building's fantastic, our help is fantastic, everything's good," he added.

The Tankard kicks off on Janurary 31st.
