  • 2006 TRASH Regionals Round 15 Tossups
    2006 TRASH Regionals Round 15 Tossups 1. Homer Simpson has mentioned this game twice on the The Simpsons; it also got a shout out in the film Donnie Darko. Two to four people can play, assuming the role of Henry, Harry, Homer or Happy. The object is to fight against the other players to remove as many marbles from the board as possible. For ten points, name this game transformed by The Simpsons into “Ravenous Revenous Rhinos.” Answer: Hungry Hungry Hippos 2. The title object is stolen by Kara, a member of the Eymorgs, an all-female group that lives underground on Sigma Draconis 6. The Eymorgs figured out how to steal it thanks to “The Great Teacher,” a device left on the planet to help the Eymorgs understand and use technology. It was stolen to act as a controller for the central systems used by the Eymorgs, but is recovered an put back into its original owner when McCoy uses The Great Teacher to learn how. This is the basic plot of, for ten points, what notable Star Trek episode named for an organ from a certain Vulcan. Answer: “Spock’s Brain” 3. Stephen King wrote an addendum to this song and provided a cameo on Bronson Arroyo’s Covering the Bases. In the black-and-white video of the original – a parody of the Evil Dead films – the lead singer appears as a superhero with a gigantic hand. Though the band has never confirmed who the subject of the song is, many fans cite lines like “I’m over my head, out of my head” as proof that the song is about the lead singer’s former bandmate Kurt Cobain.
