After getting "the call" we all headed to Joe's as usual. Tension was a little high because we had a rough last few hours so the Hamus bros were not in a good mood. Then, we headed to 90FM to see what place we came in. They announced Franklin Street Burnouts in 10th, Late Night with Bob Keeshan in 9ths, Horton Hears a Beerpig in 8th, The Basementalist in 7th, Ugly Undulated Uvulas in 6th, Graduates of a Lesser God in 5th, & Tin Man in 4th! That left us, Network and Festivus. We thought for sure that Festivus had done better than us because they got a lot of big pointers in the last few hours. Then they read Festivus for the Rest of Us in 3rd! Oz then pointed out the that difference between 3rd and 2nd was only 5 points! Then, Eck read off the 2nd place team as "Dad's Computers: Trivia is the Word" We were SOOOOOO Happy! I did the beginning of the speech even though I was in shock. Then, Eric spoke a little saying something like "5 years ago if you would have told me we'd be in here and the only team left in the hall would be Network, I would have told you that you were full of crap" lol. Then, Oz told me not to let Eric touch the trophy (because he had broken our trophy during the awards ceremony last year!) More photos: Here
