Dammit I want to disqualify a judge in the 1976 Miami Herald Spelling Bee
After all, it was his New York accent "mispronouncing" a word that made me come in third place.

I knew the word anyway but got it wrong by one letter, and knew the winning words and would have gone on to National if it wasn't for him. He ruined my life.
