Wicked Smart

On Sunday Stefan and I went to the mall and took a pit stop at the food court. Set up was Jamin 94.5 (the local hip hop station) and a wall of televisions with people playing EA Sports video games.

We sat fairly far away from the action, as Stefan said "I don't need to feel the music." (the base was really high.)

As we were finishing up, the host of the event proposed a trivia question to win shoes. The question was as follows:

What 19 coins equal 49 cents?

Stefan and I brainstormed a couple of options and and then I figured out the answer, so I said outloud "2 dimes, 3 nickels and 14 pennies." Then the host gets on the mic again and proposes the question again, because no one had come up with the answer.

Stefan and I stand up, clear the table, throw out our garbage and again, the host proposes the question because no one has come up with the answer. Stefan said "You really should just go up and answer it."

And I did just that. Someone had answered right before me, so instead of the shoes I got an EA Sports t-shirt. Wooooo. We just couldn't believe that people didn't come up the answer!!
