INTERESTING MOMENTS
We asked a question about Eye of the Tiger, and it was as though a karaoke night spontaneously broke out as half a dozen teams tried to figure out how many times the word “tiger” comes up in the song.
We watched one team lock in an answer they had whittled down to a 50-50, then debate it for 10 minutes, before changing it… to the wrong answer.
And we had a changing of the guard at the top of our leaderboard. With one week to go, it could still go either way.
