Okay, it wasn't a Neg-5, or even a Toss-up, but
andywehrm's post reminds me of the stupidest response to a
bonus I have ever heard . . .
My HS team was
competing on WHTM's (a central-PA TV station) High-Q
tournament and, arriving early for a round of play, had the
opportunity to watch the match before ours. One of the two
teams responded with Alexander Hamilton THREE times for
boni about U.S. Presidents! It doesn't get any worse
than that . . .
