He’s No “Numnah”!


It seems like every year, there is some sort of memorable moment that comes out of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. This year isn’t an exception. It happened to this year’s champion. He apparently Sameer Mishra thought the announcer was saying “numb nut” but it was actually “numnah”, which is a pad that goes under the saddle to keep the saddle clean and to cushion the horse’s or pony’s back. That’s much different than a “numb nut”. Play the video, it’s good for a laugh.
