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
CAPTION CONTEST for FEB 27! We're having an ice day in Dallas, but some of us still have to work. Fortunately I had the pic ready to go in advance! How would you caption this picture? Comment below!
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!

Re: Caption contest
When General Mills found there were no athletes available for Wheaties boxes who weren't tainted by rumors of drug use, they got desperate....
Re: Caption contest
The Wheaties folks finally recognized that the Vocal Majority's choreography is intense enough to be considered a sport, and for the first time ever, featured a gold medal winning Baritone on the box.
