INTERESTING MOMENTS

A team of players from India cursed themselves for not getting Bangladesh as a country that is spelled with the letter G.

One new team learned why you don’t yell out the answer to a bonus question, when they yelled out Neil Patrick Harris, but didn’t write it down, and the team next to them did.

When asked about religious populations, one team guessed that there were 3 billion Jews in the world. In other news, apparently Kanye West was at one of our quizzes.

And one team who ALWAYS gambles 5 on the gambler’s question forgot to wager 5. They got the question wrong & should have lost, but their screw up wound up working for them as they won by 3.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about rugby union clubs, we got guesses including the Canberra Raiders and the Brisbane Broncos. Nope. Wrong code.

A DJ & producer whose name comes from a name the lowest level of Buddhist hell… Calvin Harris.

Who coached the New England Patriots? Emperor Palpatine.

We asked about coastal countries in Europe, and had to talk one team out of saying Switzerland and Austria.

One a bonus question while looking for a US state, we gave hints that it was a northern state, that borders Canada, and begins with the letter M. We still went through several guesses, including some states that were guessed at three times, before we finally gave the hint that it started with M and ended with innesota.

See you next week.
