American Crossword Puzzle Tournament

WordplayThe American Crossword Puzzle Tournament starts tomorrow in Stamford, Connecticut. A local newspaper has run an article on the event and the documentary Wordplay which will be screened at the event tomorrow. Wordplay is about Will Shortz, who founded the event, and will feature some of the tournament participants along with many famous cruciverbalists including Bill Clinton, Bob Dole, Jon Stewart, and Mike Mussina. The tournament is apparently growing and turning into more of a general puzzle event. Jeopardy star Ken Jennings will be on hand to run a trivia game and a “Sudoku Smackdown” is also planned. So, I wonder… will the best cruciverbalists in the country be otherwise occupied when the final Starbucks puzzle come out?
