Should be the winning bar posts the recap:

Encore: At the 1998 Grammy Awards Aretha Franklin filled in for an ailing:

LUCIANO PAVAROTTI over Reba McEntire, Annie Lennox, Bob Dylan, Tony Bennett

I remember reading this in my copy of Billboard's Grammy special of January 3rd as one of the greatest moments in the Awards history. Pavarotti waited until the show was already one hour into the broadcast
to say he wouldn't be able to make it and Franklin filled in to sing the opera piece.

Our bar finished 11th with three boards. Another establishment joins the ranks of one patron = maximum one board even if we were the only ones playing.

I like that rule, but CRAIG would get tired of typing.. After initially reviewing the 2015 grammy awards, I'm skipping next game out of total disrespect to Kanye West (his music not his antics)... However, will gladly post the recaps for the following two weeks ☺️

Don't wuss out. The last round is just going to be your typical Trendalicious game.

Besides, it's been more interesting lately with Oklahoma in the mix. They were the top dogs in this game 17 years ago. Have we really been playing it that long? :shock:

Good to see the Okies rising again!

OK, now if we lose, we at least have a plausible excuse.....too damn lazy to post a recap.

I sometimes barely remember what I had at dinner let alone every Q during the "please kill me now"
round. The final question I could probably due, though, if we were to win (and that gets more challenging
as the competition gets better). And it has gotten better, as have the questions lately.
