Caption contest
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Caption contest
Wombad shows how little he knows about barbershop quartets by trying to add himself to a group without even wearing the right costume.

Re: Caption contest
Week 24 Caption Contest results! First the Honorable Mentions: Larry E Collins: "Wombat is an all-American animal that knows that REAL FOOTBALL is. His only 'World Cup' is made in China."; CS-Gail Randall: "Not only in the wrong outfit, the wrong sport, but the wrong country...... Perhaps Brad should consider chess.”; and Zazu : "Wombat shows how little he knows about barbershop quartets by trying to add himself to a group without even wearing the right costume."
And it’s top pick for Alan AJ Irby, his fifth win this year – well on pace to beat his record last year of seven wins! Congratulations A.J.!
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday – dare we to say, maybe a Vegas-themed one?

Re: Caption contest
2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 25 -- THREE pictures this week! The Wombat caption contest will go on hiatus over the next couple of weeks while I compete with VM, so I thought I'd just run three pictures this week... Vegas-themed, of course! This is the first of three Vegas-themed pictures for this week's contest -- two more to come! How would you caption this picture? Comment below!
Please either quote this post or identify the picture ("1st pic" or "Rat Pack") so I know which picture you are captioning!
The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, just the glory of winning!
