with..." what?
Slingshots & stones? Nope. Ever heard of sticks? No
score. The Guards will wrap it up with.....

the Guards have 1700, 1200 to the Tents and the Arts
with 1000. It's.....it's.....it's....
THE CHOSEN THREE
The Guards will kick it off with this:

evidence to John to Baptist that Jesus was the Messiah-
blind can see, lives changed, leprosy cleansed, demons
removed, mute can speak or good news preached?
The get the blind and the good news, but hte mute....put

the one. The Arts want to get in if this is
answered.....
Which three of these musical instruments were played
while David led the Ark of the Covenant toward
Jerusalem- harps, flutes, sackbuts, castanets, cymbals
or drums?
They get cymbals, and harps, but drums.....got them in a
crash. Castanets, like flamenco dancers was the one. The
Tents will need a clean sweep to get in if this question
needs to be asked.....
Which three of these are animals Abram sacrificed in
response to God's covenant w/ him- ox, goat, pig, wolf,
heifer or ram?
Ox is first....nope. 2 would still do it. Goat is
2nd......yes. Heifer to get in........YES! And with
that, the Arts erase themselves with $2500 in their
pocket. Today's bible study showdown is an entree known
as.....
BREAD
So let's eat with the notable absence of Peter Pepper
and the Pepper Panic.
The Tents will go first, they get.........8. 9 will make
them winners for the Guards......nope, it's a tie! So we
go to a tiebreaker. Whoever is closer will go on. And
the question is....
What age did Noah's father Lamech live to be?
The Tents say....879. The Guards.....859. The age Lamech
live to be was..........777, so instead of playing
Plinko, Cliff Hangers, Rat Race, or stuff like that, the
Guards scare off the Tents with $20K while the latter
run off with 5 grand.
More trivia from camp TABC very soon, so until then....
