An 800 point game will almost certainly never be done, because some
bonus clues will inevitably be obscure enough to prevent that.
To use a crappy sports/movie analogy, scoring 800 points in a 20 TU
game would be akin to Steve Nebraska striking out all 27 in "The
Scout"; an obscure bonus clue, then, would be the equivalent of a
batter hitting a grounder to short.
As for entourage, could you imagine Tom Waters entering the room and,
during a buzzer check, performing a rap a la Roy Jones Jr. as to how
great he is? :
"I buzz with Goldwater off one word, yo,
And get nineteen against any team.
Michigan, Berkeley, think you can beat me?
Think again chumps, that's just a dream.
Can't touch me in history, science, lit,
Or any academic subject here.
But if some scrub nails that one trash toss-up,
I be askin', 'Who is this Mr. Belvedere?'"
Yeah, I know, I won't be writing any raps for the Jay-Z/Nas flame war
anytime soon... :P
