Palaniuk’s pending child

Here’s a quick update on the pending birth of Brandon and Tiffanie Palaniuk’s first child, likely the most anticipated and followed birth in the history of the Bassmaster Elite Series at this point.

“So far so good,” Tiffanie reported from base camp in Rathdrum, Idaho. “Still hoping she holds tight a few more days.”

Palaniuk has been able to compete at least part of all four days now on Pickwick thanks to the delayed arrival of his first little one, who was scheduled to enter the world nearly a week ago now on Memorial Day. Being able to do so has helped him maintain his Progressive Bassmaster Angler of the Year lead against the hard-charging Brandon Lester and John Cox.

So, Palaniuk’s work is done it would seem? Not hardly. Knowing the baby could come any minute now, I don’t think there will be much rest for Palaniuk the next 48 hours, as he’ll still have a grueling 30-hour drive ahead of him when the scales close today.

Here’s to hoping that the duo can be together as two become three soon. Praying for a safe trip home and delivery for you guys.
