Question 2: Booming Sands
We actually got two teams that correctly answered the question. Congratulations to the both teams. It was kind of weird since both teams were named “I Don’t Like Cocaine, I just like the smell of it.” Both teams even answered the tie breaker question correctly so they split the $110 of cold hard cash evenly. The correct answer was “Booming Sands” and the tie breaking question was “Which desert was this sound recorded in?” with the correct answer being the Gobi Desert.
