For the month of May, Charlotte magazine will be celebrating all that is best in the Queen City with its annual Best of the Best (BOB) issue. But what about everything that sucks around here?

Yup-Town is pleased to announce its own awards: the Worst of the Worst (WOW). The winners will be announced on Friday, May 9, the day after the BOB Banquet (or Kanye West concert).

Send in your nominations now to yuptown@gmail.com, along with an (optional) explanation of why he/she/it is the worst. I'll post the best rants over the next couple of weeks, and online voting commences on May 1.
