~ Not watching "groundbreaking" shows like Mad Men or Breaking Bad will have nasty side-effects other than just not having a clue what everyone is talking about. You may actually miss a trivia question because of this.
~ I'm noticing a pattern with the Broadway questions being asked. For some reason, it's always incredibly simple. Seriously, who doesn't know that Man of La Mancha is about Don Quixote? Give us Broadway Babies something really difficult the next time. Enough with the boring sports Q's, bring on the theatre!
~ Unfortunately, when being asked about the monetary systems of Asian countries, not even having a banker on our team will help us.
~ Apparently, the Mississippi River runs way farther north than I thought it did - all the way to the twin cities. Who knew?
~ Thanks to a quality high school that had its very own dance for the 12 Days of Christmas, we were able to answer a very important question regarding the number of days birds were given as gifts. 6 in case you were wondering...Now to get that darn song back out of my head.
~ My new process for Toss Up questions - just randomly decide on a number - may be the next big thing, if only my team mates would take a chance on my numbers for a change. My answer for the number of acting credits on Billy Dee Williams' resume - 142 - was pretty darn close to the correct answer of 132. Too bad they went for 76 thus giving the 4 points and shots to another team. (While this may seem like a great strategy, I must admit that the other 3 times I tried this, I WAY off...)
~ Sometimes even betting it all AND having the right answer isn't enough to win the big Turtle Bucks. Sometimes the only other team that is ahead of you in the standings, will also bet it all and also have the right answer. Ugh. So close!
