Synopsis[]
Evan Susser (Fist Fight, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) joins the 'boys to set up the rules for this year's Munch Madness and kick off the Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon!
Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon Rules 📜[]
This year's Tournament of Chompions: Pie Noon is focused on desserts and sweets.
The rules for Pie Noon:
- Just desserts! - meals may not appeal (if you're an entree or main, you cannot join the game)
- No sweet drinks; it has to be more like a shake to be included - If your drink is not slushy, Wiger will get fussy (the juice is not loose).
- Donuts 'do nut' count - no breakfast pastries or sweets!
- If it's in a mall, you can't play ball! - restaurants like Cinnabon or Auntie Anne's aren't seen as desserts, and they also do not want to go into a mall during the pandemic.
