    This is the second consecutive game that the defending champion did well on the first game then the second game got crashed and burned and that was certainly the case today with Camron. The DJ! round has certainly belong to Kathleen and Mattea and they went neck and neck.

    My brothers have played the game of life ever since they were little. There was also a computer game of life made by Hasbro. A good final jeopardy clue today and congrats to Mattea on winning and to Kathleen getting final. There was a trivial pursuit final not too long ago which came up on Jeopardy that everyone got.

    @rhonda and @Jacob did you guys play game of life before?

    • Jacob Ska says:

      Lou, I never played the Board game Life nor did my children. We liked Monopoly, Scrabble, Chess,Trivial Pursuit, etc.

    • rhonda says:

      I played it once or twice, but I didn’t own the game.

      • Howard says:

        Same here, but I did come up with the right answer.

        Mattea was quite smart and chatty. Let’s see if she can avoid the recent “sophomore slump” Nell and Camron suffered.

        • Jason says:

          Kathleen and Mattea were on a breakneck speed. Good on Mattea, but, the chatter is, to me, extraneous and annoying. In my mind, you get one – either “that’s my home province” OR “I should have bet more”. Not both.

          And, there are just some things you know for J. It’s like, “Scottish poet”, that’s Robert Burns. “Mobiles” is only one person.

          Nonetheless, I’m hoping Mattea can link a few together!
