First the person who won their way on the show without apparently having a clue about the game or trivia in general, then old iron butt who seems to have had the condition migrate northwards, and now this one.
Where do they get these people?
And more importantly, why bother???
Sadly, I know why. But can it really be that good for ratings?

I suppose "C" would be a possibility if the song was about Puget Sound.

OK, I must confess that I would have had no idea about this, so time to ATA.

It's a shame she didn't make the association between "Prius" and "prior".

Ummm, okay, you're not a beer drinker. I wasn't familiar with the device being called a "coupler", either. But you have heard of tapping a keg of beer, haven't you, ear? And never heard of anyone "tapping" one of those other containers?

Exactly. Particularly at the $500 level, "tap" should lead straight to keg of beer. Seems like earendel's college education was sorely deficient if he never attended a "kegger".

In retrospect I can see the obvious. But I think that I saw "wine bottle" and read "wine cask" and you do tap those.

I attended Oklahoma Baptist University, a school not likely to show up on the list of "party schools" in the USA. Plus I didn't live on campus; I was already married and had a 2-year old son when I started.
