And The Oscar Goes To…

Well, before the Oscars, the arguments were heated: Could Brokeback sweep? Did Narnia really deserve makeup over Star Wars? Paul Giamatti or George Clooney?

All these questions and more were answered on Sunday. Monday, everyone eagerly awaited for Poolmaster Stephens to tally the results.


And what do you know, but PS 260, with a large amount of outside competition, stayed on top. Producer Mitch Stockwell hit the $375 jackpot with a stunning 52 points. She nailed 5/6 on the coveted four pointers, a tremendous 6/6 in the 3 pointers, and nice and tidy 7/9 of the 2 pointers. Wow! She deserves it.


Second place went to the Poolmaster himself (we checked his ballot for monkey business and he passed) with 49 points. His downfall was picking Brokeback over Geisha in cinematography, the one mistake that did him in. But he did beat 48 other people, so he got a cool $125.


Last year’s winner, Maury was distraught with his 4th place showing.
