Pol, celebrated its 100th episode Saturday, March 25 on Nat Geo

The event is also a culmination of a season-long fan contest,
where winners were selected weekly to join Dr. Pol in Michigan for
the 100th episode event. Over the past several months, fans were
encouraged to share what they think makes the show so incredible on
Twitter, Facebook or Instagram using #DrPolFanContest. The winners
were treated with a special day with the Pols, and joined in on the
celebrations.
