The BAT Challenge: Playing Favorites Results!

Which of the nominees in Caption Contest 182 (Victoria Roberts's totem pole cats)was my favorite? Myra and Deborah picked

"Yes, Officer, they say he was about six feet four, with pointy ears and abnormally short arms."
Alexia Kauffman (Arlington, VA)

but Debbie went with

"I wasn't laid off—I just decided to pursue other interests."
Christy Yoest (New York, NY)

while nobody, but nobody, picked

"Hello, YouTube? I've got something you might be interested in."
Judy Goldberg (Brooklyn, NY)

And you know what? I didn't pick that one either! What tickled my fancy (and that of voters at The New Yorker) was Alexia Kauffman's submission. Which means that Myra and Deborah advance by one point each!

14 Deborah (includes WWI? credit and Attendance Award and bonus point)
