The NNSDG Holiday Party for 2011 was a resounding success with a fun time had by all.  There was Nerdy Jeopardy where Table 3 pulled out the come from behind victory worthy of a Hollywood movie.  Table 1 had a certain cheater which disqualified his entire table.  Table 2 made an epic blunder with their Final Nerdy Jeopardy wager.

Would like to thank our generous sponsors:
