Match Game

Post by BuzzerZen »

I was going to post about how cool Charles Nelson Reilly is, but this is a quizbowl forum, so instead I'm going to BLANK.

This is the time when Joyce Bulifant would come up with something that made absolutely no sense whatsoever, like "eat a squirrel."

Evan was so clueless.

HOW CLUELESS WAS HE?

EDIT: He was so clueless, whenever he tried to get an awesome power, he always drew a BLANK. :roll:

"Write a god-awful Match Game bonus"
I could be wrong, and maybe Barker can weigh in on this, but I could swear that there was a Match Game bonus sometime at the ABD tournament in the last couple years... don't remember it or how it worked, but I could swear there was one...

I know for sure there was a Card Sharks bonus in 2006.

The Pictionary bonus at BU's Trash Junior Bird this year was pretty good, although I failed for not remembering what the cover of Nevermind looked like.

PACE has the world-famous Match Game section in the All-Star round. Or at least they did last year. It was a hoot for those of us old enough to get it.

Yes, we did it again this year: essentially "upon graduation Matt Weiner got a job as a <blank>." We did get a match this year with "gigolo."
