A college-level television event in 1994 that involved 8 American and 8 Canadian schools. A description from this site follows:
Sponsored by World Affairs Television. Featured 8 American and 8 Canadian teams in a single elimination tournament, ultimately won by Harvard University. Taped in September, 1994, it was meant in the U.S. for PBS stations, and ended up being broadcast in very few markets. The organizers had never run a tournament before and encountered many problems, some of which appear on the show. A tape of the first match, featuring a lockout system that didn't lock out and a confused moderator, is the Grail of video collectors.
