We love it when we are down to 1 chip left in the jackpot bag. There is always a big crowd. Teams pull in ringers. The pressure is on and it may even feel a little tense in the room. And at the end of the night, someone is going to be very happy. Pretty sure we had all that in this week's game.
The game was a good, close one. A few teams jumped out to the lead, and then started to separate themselves from the pack after the second round. But a bad round three has often been the demise of early leading team, and I Want to Fire Squid All Over Alana's Rabbits fell to that curse. Another interesting trend is the team that isn't hot fire in round 1, but then puts on a run to grab the win. We Oppose Using Babies as Anchors to Hold Ships in Dock made that run, but came up short by a point. So who took it all? Well, the Fire Squids grabbed round 1, took round 2 on the time tie breaker, and although they didn't win rounds 3 or 4, they were in first place after each and took home the jackpot. Congrats to the Fire Squids. We Oppose Using Babies as Anchors was our second place team and took home that mini-jackpot for that honor.
Next week, we start all over. 5 chips in the bag, 4 red, 1 blue. The pressure is a little less, but the will to win is just as strong. We hope we'll see you on Wednesday at the Landmark.
