5th Grader thread

#1 Post by earendel » Mon Nov 17, 2008 10:32 am

Since Marley is late getting started with this, I'll do it.

Since it's sweeps month, the game shows are bringing out the celebrities and 5th Grader is no exception. The first contestant was Deborah Norville.
Spoiler
Deborah played a strong game, not needing to use any of her cheats. She reached the $175,000 question, which was:
Spoiler
Who was elected governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony 12 times between 1639 and 1648?
Even with all her cheats available Norville decided to drop out. They didn't show the class's answers, meaning they probably missed it. The answer was
Spoiler
John Winthrop
Next up was Rick Fox from the LA Lakers. His run was short because of time - he only answered two or three questions before time ran out. He'll be back next week.

Oh, and Marley, I can't believe you're still watching this show.

This year's class may be personable little performers, but none of them come close to Nathan's record as a lifeline. :|
