Mexiflips!

Mexiflips send on their topics for next week's pre-Thanksgiving matchup. Seriously though, if you've got family coming into town and don't have other plans, we'd love if you brought them around to enjoy a night of quizzing. And if you've got family stuff happening that precludes your ability to play, we hope you have a joyous holiday! Study up:

1. Filipino Food
2. Britney Spears
3. Handball
4. World Class Cyclists
5. Corridos (Mexican Music)
6. FSU Basketball
7. New Wonders of the World
8. Beany and Cecil
9. Reality TV
10. Criminal Law
11. Deewop Music
12. Obscure Alcoholic Beverages
13. Calculus
14. American Literature

The only thing we're not sure on is whether the New Wonders of the World topic refers only to the modern 7 or if it merely excludes the ancient 7. Check the Facebook post to see if any of the Mexiflips players is able to clarify.

Thanks and see you Wednesday!

Fresnocity wins but draws unlucky red

If we recall correctly, this is the second time a team has won the game when it was one red and one blue, and opted to send a new team member up for the chip draw. Both times, red. That's a lot to bear. Take heart rookies, it's pure chance.

Next week, all there is in the bag is a blue chip. Bring your A-game, set your star line-ups, and study hard because you'll be contending with these topics from All My Fascist Friends Are Coming Over Tonight (don't eat saltine crackers while studying, these are dry enough):

1. Warren Ellis Bibliography
2. Allman Brothers Band
