Advent Calendar Quiz - Final Post

Hey Quizzees,

I hope you all had a wicked Christmas!

Well, we have come to the end of the 2008 Advent Calendar Quiz. I hope it provided at least a bit of amusement over the past 25 days, and thanks to everyone for playing along – much appreciated!

In the end, Chris H. finished strong and wins first place, but many other drinks are to be doled out in 2009 and I look forward to meeting with each of you for drinks next year.

As we move into the New Year, I extend to each of you the very best wishes for a rich and prosperous 2009.

Now, for answers to the final questions:

Question #24
________________Question #24_______

Although this was a touch question, the group rose to the challenge, as usual, and provided answers for many of the images. The correct answers were:

#1. Capital One - Financial Services for Small Businesses
#2. Johnny Walker - Scotch Whiskey - The caption removed read “..and he/she drinks Johnny Walker”.
#3. FIM - Financial Services - The big nose makes reference to the fact that the company will help you get a nose for where the money is.
#4. Hiltl - Vegetarian Restaurant - The caption removed read “there’s a vegetarian in every football player”.

The winners were as follows:

Capital One – Chris H. – 2 drinks

Johnny Walker – Chris H. – 2 drinks
FIM – Aaron G. – 1 drink for rhinoplasty as the closest guess (really tough call)
Hiltl – Chris Hamade – 2 drinks

Question #25
________________Question #25____________
Some great guesses were submitted for this question, but one exact definition was submitted, by Rob R., so he gets credit for answering the last question of 2008.

The correct answer was a corn husker for cutting corn stalks without having to bend over.
