## Nick's intro

This week on *Doughboys Double:* the second quarter-pounder final matchup of **Munch Madness 2023: The Tournament of Chompions: BOWL: Poké Region** — Poké Bar *vs*. Sweetfin!

*Let's a-go!*

## BOWL: Rules 📜

The rules for this year's **Munch Madness 2023: The Tournament of Chompions: BOWL:**

* Salad ain't valid. No salads! Bowls only.
* Chili is silly. No simple bowls of chili.
* Stew won't do. Bowl viscosity must be stew-level at minimum. Goop not soup!
* When it comes to strikes, we're at the bowling alley. Strikes are good! Three strikes and you are in. Two strikes = a 7-10 split decision and you are also in.
* ~~Drinks are in the gutter. Sides are also in the gutter.~~ (Adam Pally talks Susser into allowing drinks and sides in this Tournament.)
* Cookies are ookie. Cookies cannot be considered, but it must be asked: is Christmas a cookie holiday?
* When it comes to bread, there is more that will be said. Chips are also bread.
* Silverware and the bowl itself can be factored in to the decision.

## BOWL: Poké Region: Scoring 🍲

For this year's Tournament, The Doughboys rate the bowls on their Greens, Grains, Proteins, Dips/Dressing, Bowl, Silverware/Drinks/Bread (the Pally Rule), and Portion Size (the Montoya Rule). They do not rate numerically or on any scale, but just say which one they prefer.

## BOWL: Poké Region: Results 🍲

Which of these bowls are being given to The Dude in *The Big Lebowski* and is so good that it resurrects Donny back to life?

The winning bowl gets a strike. (Three strikes and you're in. Turkeys are good! But also two strikes is a 7-10 split decision and you advance as well.)

If it loses, it is declared a gutterball and is given to The Man.

So Sweetfin gets three strikes and wins! It advances to the next round of The Tournament.

Poké Bar is flushed down the toilet and goes to The Man.
