A tie at the Van Cliburn Piano Competition

BF
It's true, the nation's preeminent piano competition (America's Piano Idol?) has produced a tie. 20-year-old Nobuyuki Tsujii and 19-year-old Haochen Zhang both took first prizes. And $20,000 in cash. And 3 years of concert management. And a CD recording contract. Here's the full story from the Dallas Morning News.

Shouldn't they go into overtime or something? Just asking.

UPDATE:
Bart Collins at The Well-Tempered Blog offers some comments on the Van Cliburn results.
