In a week where a hungry elephant wandered into a Thai grocery store looking for food, where a Maryland man won a $30,000 lottery prize off a ticket given to him by his nephew, where an escaped zebra caused traffic chaos here in Middle Tennessee, where over 14 million bees were accidentally released near the Canadian border after a tractor trailer overturned, where an Australian woman completed 7,079 pull-ups in 24 hours (nearly doubling the previous Guinness World Record), and where famed London wax museum Madame Tussauds unveiled a sculpture of a beloved British icon: a sausage roll, we’re still talking games here on Meeple Mountain.
