Six teams: the Purple Parrots, the Red Jaguars, the Silver Snakes, the Green Monkeys, the Blue Barracudas, and the Orange Iguanas face off in a physical and mental showdown to retrieve an ancient artifact from folklore. Only one team will earn the right to enter Olmec's temple to retrieve it. It is now time for Olmec to tell us about the legend of the dead man's hand. Pay attention, because your knowledge of the legend can bring you a step closer to the temple..."In the Old West, gunfighters used to say 'speed is fine, but accuracy is final.' And nobody knew this better than the prince of the pistoliers, Wild Bill Hickock. He was tall and handsome with long hair and a mustache, and was quite a ladies' man. By the time he became marshal of Abilene, Kansas, he was said to have killed more than a hundred men. Wild Bill made everyone check their guns at the edge of town, and asked lawbreakers to move along peaceably. But if they refused he wasn't afraid of a shootout. After serving as marshal of Abilene, he joined Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. One day, playing poker in Deadwood, South Dakota, he was shot from behind by an angry gambler. His poker hand at the time was a full house: 3 aces and 2 eights. To this day it's called the Dead Man's Hand. Someone grabbed the cards off the table, and they found their way to the temple. Your quest is to grab the Dead Man's Hand and bring it back here..." |
