Tbf getting 2nd hurts when something like a trip to the Barber or Denker is on the line

i placed 2nd for years when trying to get to the Barber, always barely missing out on 1st. It sucked. I’ve been more fortunate in getting to the Denker tho xD

A number of states (not all) provide some support to defray part of the cost of attending the Denker (the player still has to pay for part of it), but I haven't heard of any state giving monetary prizes for any of the places in their Denker qualifier.

Yeah and mine was Barber which is even less likely anyway...
