Siggly Diggly came so close to the gold, but fell two points short.

There was some debate between the members of the Dumpster Babies as to who was the smart one.

Puff N Suds were in the back room this week (or is it the front room?)

You talking to me?

Brian and Chris of Eat It Raw fled the air conditioning of the front room (or is it the back room?)

* - (For those of you who don't know, Curtis began hosting trivia at a Holiday Inn in Lancaster County in the early nineties. It became so popular that he eventually became a full-time host with shows five nights a week, including Bube's Brewery. He moved to Orlando, Florida in 2002, where he continues to be a success, hosting over ten shows weekly. He can also be heard on the Shannon Burke Radio Show on Friday afternoons and on his very own weekday radio show on WAMT's Game Show Radio.)

And Now, This Week's Spelling Question

Chuckles: We Can Win!

Powernick and Superjason of We Can Win . . . With Super Tickets!, in their civilian identities, vanquished teams five times their size tonight (despite missing two of the three superhero questions). Evildoers tremble at the sight of the duo. Fear them!

Ubersmack was one point behind and placed second. It's a rare photo of Deric without flipping the bird at the cameraman (he's probably doing it under the table).

Smackdown was out in full force to celebrate Patrick and Jean's birthdays. Patrick turned 21, while Jean was older than 21. Here's a pic of half of their bronze-winning team, taken by tonight's guest photographer, Fritz. Thanks, Fritz!

Johnny Appleseed fans Skirtland placed fourth.

The Drakes had a strong last round and were only one question away from the money slots.

Out of the Vortex was hoping for a three-peat, but it was not to be, as they landed in sixth.

The seventh-place Intoxicated Intellectuals won't be able to make it to Chuckles next week, but they chose an appropriate theme: TV dads.

I was surprised the George of the Talent Scouts missed the Fudd beer question, since he has a Duff t-shirt. Scott and Brian were both at the Relay for Life yesterday, so I think they were feeling the heat.

Two more correct answers and the Acosta team would have been picking the theme.

The Tidy Bowlers enjoyed Amos' not-so-famous Lemon cookies.

Leslie and Mary Jo are good at drawing creative maps of the U.S. Thankfully, they're not geography teachers.

Sedrox did some crossing out of the right answers, but did really well for a solo team.
