Beware of Busfolk....they bite.

John Travolta may believe in alien souls inhabiting our bodies, but he was right about those summer nights. It’s about this time of year I wish we were in the southern hemisphere.

Last night’s competition was a turbulent one with the standings changing after every round. Team ‘Happy New Beers’ lead for the entire night with ‘Team B’, ‘Run DMC’, and ‘Busfolk’ jockeying for number two. After round 2 it looked like the top three were set for the final round when ‘Busfolk’ made a last minute effort with the handouts to edge out ‘Run DMC’ and take third place.

The final round…the category picked…the wagers put in… and then the answer. Both ‘Team B’ and ‘Happy New Beers’ wagered just enough to keep their lead and/or take the top prize, but answered incorrectly. It looked as though ‘Happy New Beers’ would keep the lead and win it all, except that ‘Busfolk’ played it safe and wagered nothing. In a huge upset, ‘Busfolk’ took the top prize for only the second time in the team of two’s career and graciously accepted their prize without any “cat-calling” or gloating at all (sort of).

‘Happy New Beers’ took second and vowed to return, and with greater numbers (like the sand people).
