IWS #176 - The Results
Well, looks like the Comeback Edition provided a couple of layups, a couple of slap shots, and a hail mary (or two...). Without further ado, here are the results:
1) What hotel did you choose to stay at? 7 - Bellagio 6 - MGM Grand 2 - Caesar's Palace 1 - Holiday Inn 1 - Luxor 1 - Mandalay Bay 1 - Mirage 1 - Rio 1 - Venetian 2) What cast member from the TV show Lost would you most like for it to be? (either show name or actual name will count here) 10 - Kate 7 - Locke 3 - Jack 1 - Juliet 3) What is your favorite Skittle color? 19 - Red 2 - Orange 4) Who is your favorite female athlete? (answer is not restricted to current athletes... it may be ESPN Classic the crowd is watching) 6 - Anna Kournikova 6 - Danica Patrick 2 - Maria Sharapova 1 - Allison Stoke 1 - Brandi Chastain 1 - Jennie Finch 1 - Florence Griffith-Joyner 1 - Mia Hamm 1 - Michelle Wie 1 - Serena Williams 5) What one topping do you put on your pizza? 20 - Pepperoni 1 - Sausage 6) What one roulette bet do you make with your new found chip to start your gambling comeback? 14 - Black 3 - Red 2 - Number 13 1 - Number 19 1 - 2nd Column And the Scores...

Butter_of_69 1,564,080 Coffee Warlord 1,564,080 Congrats to the two winners! And interestingly, they each picked a different favorite female athlete (Danica vs Anna respectively). So no claims for cheating will be accepted. Last edited by tyketime : 06-01-2010 at 10:03 AM. |

Good thing I changed my Lost pick from Jack to Locke at the last second.
CW, I would be glad to either run it or just donate half the questions if you want to do it. Either way is cool with me.

The Roulette question killed me. I didn't have a clue. Nor a chance at picking black.

I thought about doing Kournikova but decided to go with Serena instead. If I had gone with Kournikova I would be standing in the winners circle.
You people are racist ass mf'ers.

Perhaps we just have a few Passenger 57 fans that replied...
John Cutter: Charlie, ever played roulette? Charles Rane: On occasion. John Cutter: Well, let me give you a word of advice. Always bet on black! Last edited by tyketime : 06-01-2010 at 01:16 PM. |

Honestly, that line is exactly what I thought of. "Always bet on black." Stupid, yes, but that's the name of the game.

The Bellagio messed me up. If only one more person had picked the MGM Grand, I would've won.
Congrats to the winners. |
