What a game we had tonight! Doubles abounded as we had some of the highest scores I've ever seen & there were a ton of shakeups including a HUGE one in the last round! Let's get into it!

The Number of Homeless Dudes Sean Has Blown Is... had an exceptional start with 2 successful doubles in a row. They throw in a 3rd double in round 3 for good measure & end the game with a excellent score of 77, which would be enough to win most games, but not tonight as there were 2 other teams that had their best performances to date! The Number of Homeless Dudes Sean Has Blown Is... finish in 3rd, taking the bronze!

Fear of Flying doubled in exactly the same rounds that The Number of Homeless Dudes Sean Has Blown Is..., the only difference is that they only missed one question the only game, making this their best game that I've ever witnessed! Unfortunately for them, they were not confident enough in their answers & even though they got perfect scores in rounds 6 & 7, they lost the lead in the last round because another team decided it was chance taking time. Fear of Flying finish in 2nd with a magnificent score of 86, taking the silver!

Bruce Jennertalia started the game off with a perfect round & this would be the last perfect round that they didn't double as they showed us a textbook example of aggressive play for the rest of the game! Their 2 doubles in a row in rounds 2 & 3 insured that they stayed in the front of the pack & they continued to stay there with a double in round 5. However, it would be the last 2 rounds that would prove to be the most crucial as they wisely don't double in round 6 as they miss 3 questions & then give in to their thirst for glory with an extremely aggressive double in the last round & they hit the jackpot with this gamble with the highest score I've ever seen, 94!!! They take the W, get the gold, & are now the 2 week reigning champs!
