in high school i lettered in something called ‘Varsity Star Quiz Bowl’

It was just Varsity Quiz Bowl (no "star") when I was on it. I think they changed in the mid or late 1980s.

And we didn't receive a "letter" for it back then.

where we went on PBS channel 12 in NOLA and competed in trivia competitions against other schools..


Yep, PBS Channel 12. Mel Leavitt hosted back in my day...

true story.. and im not even embarrassed about it, though i probably should be .



You shouldn't be embarrassed about that, you should be embarrassed about your online grammar... Seriously, what high school had you on their Quiz Bowl team-- McDonogh 35? ;-)

Won the 2A State Championship in basketball my senior year of high school. It was the only championship I ever won and by far the best one I could have won. Those memories are incredible.

Ha, no- though we did wipe the floor with O Perry Walker in one memorable contest… Dan Milham was the host w/the most in my day .

And hey what’s wrong with my grammar? I definitely dont bother to capitalize or use apostrophes when typing on message boards, but is that considered ‘grammatical’ ?
