National Spelling Bee goes into championship round
on ABC, there are 3 kids left and they have gone to the championship words. 25 words left and if no one loses they will be co-champions which hasn't happened in almost 50 years - according to the announcers.

2. Just ended with one champ from Illinois
one of them furriners, at least according to freepers. Of course if she's homeschooled that would be OK.
