View source for 2006 BU Trash Junior Bird

The '''2006 BU Trash Junior Bird''', also known as the '''NASCAR-Free Emily Deschanel Memorial Trash Junior Bird''', was a well-received tournament written mostly by [[Jack Brounstein]] and [[Nathan Bragg]], with [[Athul Seshadri]] writing one packet and [[Matt Bruce]] contributing to various packets.  Other minor contributors included [[John Kilby]] and several people from Maryland, including [[Casey Retterer]], [[Jeremy Eaton]], [[David Vatz]], and [[Curran Muhlberger]].

The tournament was an early part of a general movement to make trash tournaments more accessible to current undergraduates.  As part of this, most of the answer selection for the BU tournament was from after 1990, with the pre-1990 questions being on very prominent topics.

Living up to its name, it was indeed free of questions about NASCAR.
