"What? Where? When?" Championship in Kyiv

22 December, 1998 - 00:00

By Ihor KROTKOV
The traditional Hanukkah Cup Championship which was carried out in the
New York Nightclub by the Israeli Culture Club in Kyiv, was combined this
year with the second round of Kyiv championship of the popular "What? Where?
When?" game show.

The intellectual competition, which has been taking place in Kyiv for
ten years now, gathers the best savants annually. 43 teams, a record number,
participated in this year's second round. This movement has been gaining
power in Ukraine, since new players and new teams come out every year.

Despite the chilly atmosphere in the club, the players burned with passion.
They fought for the right to advance further in the tournament seriously
and long. Over five hours of answers to very complicated questions, prepared
by the Vice-Major team resulted in the victory of the Refan team, captained
by Oleksiy Karachunsky. The team was awarded prizes provided by the renowned
Elanda Tea Co. and Refan French perfumes.
