Good Boychick Wins the Spelling Bee

I don't think Arvind Mahankali is Jewish. I doubt he's ever been to a kosher deli. But thanks to his knowledge of traditional Jewish cuisine, Arvind is the 2013 Scripps National Spelling Bee Champion.



"May I have the language of origin please?
German-derived Yiddish"

I don't know why the audience found that so funny. But did you notice the example sentence? "Max hoped to find at least one more knaidel in his soup bowl but all he discovered was his missing lower denture." Who is the smartass who writes these things?
