spelling bee in media again

The Brooklyn Downtown Star did a story on the latest Spelling Bee at Freddy's. Go read it, and then we can talk about it. It's always frightening when a nationally respected news leader like this has counterfactuals in its news stories of events that I experienced. For instance, "Ms. Magoo" is quite sure she did not spell the word she is reported to have spelled. Also, can you spot the word with an extra syllable?
