ReplyDeleteOoh. Sluter.
ReplyDeleteHaha, bizarre matchup. Gotta vote for my guy Duchamp
ReplyDeleteSluter.
ReplyDeleteWell, this is obviously DuChamp's match, right guys? ...guys? Hey, where is everybody?
ReplyDeleteSusan votes for Sluter.
ReplyDeleteWell, however obviously SOMEBODY might have expected Duchamp to prevail here, it's pretty much all Sluter: he takes the match nine votes to three to close out the very lastest match of Second Round Elimination. Duchamp, never averse in life to an odd distinction, becomes the final artist to leave the Tournament with fewer than three wins.
ReplyDeleteActually, that last sentence is stuff and nonsense. The first sentence was true, though.
