SPRINGFIELD -- It was an all-out shout-out for husbands at the state fair. The Annual Husband-Calling Competition was held Sunday night.

One by one, women took center stage and bellowed for their beaus. Judges factored in volume, appeal, assurance and originality when picking a winner.

Julie Willford won the contest for a second year in a row by calling for her husband, Timothy. She took home a $250 prize.
