Round: High Noon
I decided that I
needed to do an anti-Twilight round, and what is more un-Twilight than high
noon? So this is a round about cowboys
and lunch time. Lunch time is basically
the best part of any work day, you get to leave the office and eat food. What is the most profitable restaurant chain
in the United States?

Shoulders died, a rodeo cowboy who was apparently known as the Babe Ruth of
Rodeo. He actually held the record for
the longest sports licensing endorsement in the history of professional sports,
what was he sponsored by?
Wrangler Jeans: Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
I figure since this
is the anti-Twilight round I can ask about anything that is un Twilight,
right? So the Twilight movie was a huge
cultural impact when it was released in 2008, but it wasn't the most popular
movie of that year. What was the most
popular movie in 2008?
The Dark Knight: Midnight Train to Georgia - Gladys
Knight & the Pips
People are still
making westerns, even though maybe they shouldn't be. I personally didn't see the Lone Ranger movie
that came out in 2013, although from what I understand that isn't necessarily a
bad thing. It really is impossible to
say. Who played Tonto in the most recent
Lone Ranger?
Johnny Depp: Rolling in the Deep by Adele
My personal favorite
cowboy movie is the Magnificent Seven.
It has everything you could want from a Western, dramatic landscapes,
exciting gunfights, moody loner cowboys who beat up all the bandits, what's not
to love? What are the names of five of
the seven titular characters?
Chris Adams: Chris Brown - Five More Hours

Obama went up to
Alaska with Bear Grylls to do all sorts of outdoorsman things, fend for yourself type
