After dusting the files and photographs from 2015 and combing through them extensively, we finally have the list of 52 people who are barred from competing in the US Open. These 52 qualified for one or more of the five General Quizzes which we conducted last year as a part of QFIve and QFIesta. The college teams which qualified and split up to join the teams for a couple of quizzes are exempt from this rule. However, the college teams which qualified in the Open category aren’t.
It would be great to have these B-52s around during the US Open as audience to encourage and cheer the participants. Do ensure that you haven’t formed a team with anyone from this list!
