January will be here before we know it. But, to help pass the time, let’s play a fun game of two truths and a lie. Take your guess at which one is the lie in the comments below.

Two Truths & a Lie: Erik Tait

  1. Erik and Carisa Hendrix once accidentally wandered into an unauthorized area of a military base and needed to light a bratwurst cart on fire to create the distraction needed to escape.

  2. Erik hates puns so much that Kyle Purnell once spent five minutes during a lecture to tell a story about the Winter Olympics that ended up just being an incredibly long setup for the pun, “Kyle Purnell thinks you are a ‘luger’” Kyle then gifted him with a sticker that said “Kyle Purnell thinks you are a ‘luger’” which Erik keeps on his notebook as a reminder to never trust Kyle when he starts telling a story.

  3. Erik and Mark Calabrese were once in the same poker game and attempted to work against the other players. They ended up using different codes though and lost all their money to Scott Blumstein, the 2017 World Series of poker champion.

REVEAL LIE

Erik lied about #3. If you thought it was the first story, we wouldn’t blame you. It did actually happen though, but it was during a game of Dungeons and Dragons



So did you get it right? Let us know below.
