Show blew into Whitley Auditorium last
Friday. Anxt>ximately 80-100 students
attended the event with hopes of taking
home a bundle of cash.
Shondra McMullen was the big
winner. She outperformed 12 fellow
students to cam $170.
The show was organized where three
difTerent rounds of competition produced
qualifiers for the final round. Four people
were randomly sefected from the aiiftifayy
to compete in each qualifying round. The
winners of the qualifying rounds won $2S.
The first qualifier was won by Becky
Milum. She survived three elimination
races. The second race required the
competitors to carry a balloon between
their legs. In the third race, participants
were required to calch two bouncing balls
in the brim of the sombrero that they were
wearing.
Mark Wheeler won the second
(pialifier. In the first acc of this qualifier,
the first three competitors to pop a
balloon advanced. In the sccond race, the
first two competitors to eat a
nuHnshmaUow tied on the end of a siring
advanced. Wheeler became a final round
qmriifier when be won a lacc that requM
him to transport five pong balls from
one basket lo aooihcr with a spoon.
The third qualifier was won by
Shondra McMullen. The rules of the first
race staled that the contestants had to drink
onmge juice out of a baby bottle without
squeezing the container while wearing a
baby bonnet. After they finished the
bottle, they had to say.'Ga-Ga Goo-Goo.*'
The second round of the qualifier
required participants to see how many
marshmallows they could put in their
mouths and still say. "Chubby Buruiy.”
The last two candidates for the final round
then competed in a dressing contest that
required them to put on disco outfits from
the 1970’s.
In the first competition of the final
round. Wheeler, McMullen and Milton
competed to see who would be the first
two pec^e to stack IS wooden blocks
into a free-standing pyramid. Wheder was
eliminated in this part of the competition.
The final two competiion had to dig
through a pie tray of whipped cream to
find a piece a bubble gum. McMullen
defeated Milton in the contest by being i
the first person to unwn^) the gum and ^
Mow a bubble. MP
As a reward for wiruiing, McMulIo^
was given the opportunity to enter a
closed glass funnel for 30 seconds and grab
as many dollar bills as she could carry.
"I tried to use both of my haids to get
the money as it was flying by. It was
tough to do that because I had a bag in
between my knees that I was trying to put
the money in,’ McMullen said. "I felt like
I could not get enough money in my .
hands." ®
McMullen ended up with $145. That,
coiq)led with her ealier winnings, allowed
her to win $170 for one night's work.
