Cheating at the Scrabble National Championships!
by Brian Alterman on Aug.15, 2012, under News, Sports
Yes folks, you heard that right: There is a scrabble national championship. A player was caught holding two blank or wild tiles illegally and when confronted about it admitted his cheating. The player was ejected in the 24th of 28 rounds of the tournament which included 350 players. No telling how many players he screwed during the previous 23 rounds… John Williams, executive director of the National Scrabble Association was quoted as saying:
“It’s the first time it’s happened in a venue this big though. It’s unfortunate. The Scrabble world is abuzz. The Internet is abuzz.”
Well, that doesn’t surprise me. There is nothing going on in the internet these days and they will jump at anything that even seems like news.

This is shocking! I can’t fathom it happened? Is there really a “scrabble national championship”? If only my late great grandmother had known! She’d have been an Olympic Uno player too, give half the chance.
