Probably the worst buzz I ever had was on a
question at PACE NSC that began with something like "Call
me down, Ishtar!" or something like that. I
reflex-buzzed with "Gilgamesh," realizing about a half-second
after that my answer was completely wrong, due to the
fact that Mike Burger, our moderator, had prefaced the
question with "Uh-oh, I dunno about this one." The answer
turned out to be Mars Attacks, and I'm still
disappointed that I didn't get the prize for worst neg of the
tournament. Instead, Nate won it for buzzing on something
with "Communist Manifesto", which also turned out to
be completely wrong. He even agreed with me that my
buzz was worse.
Ever seeking credit where it's
due,
