Does anyone else watch the Latke-Hamantash debates?

<p>There are a few videos on YouTube: [url=<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjbyI7X4dEg%5DYouTube"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjbyI7X4dEg]YouTube&lt;/a> - 61st University of Chicago Hillel Latke-Hamantash Debate 2007 (Matthew Stolper Part 1)<a href="though%20I'm%20not%20sure%20if%20links%20are%20allowed%20here?">/url</a>.</p>

<p>I was kinda surprised at how many views the videos got...I thought more people would've watched them xD.</p>

<p>i was surprised by the views too. i found it was really funny.</p>

<p>I suppose it’s due to lack of publicity rather than lack of humor.</p>

<p>Or perhaps it’s the kind of intelligent humor that only UChicago applicants understand.</p>

<p>I think it sometimes takes a while to get it, but they would make amazing comedians (Elizabeth Davenport, for instance, is my favourite so far xD). </p>

<p>I don’t think it’s ‘intelligent humor’ though; they just require a little general knowledge.</p>

<p>I attended and enjoyed this year’s L-H debate. After thirty minutes of mediocre comedy and acapella, I would have been pleased by just about anything. Honestly though, its really fun to watch non-Jewish professors pretend to care about Jewish pastries.</p>

<p>After the debate, I tried Latkes and Hamentash for the first time. Very diappointing. Latkes are hash browns; Hamentash are sugar cookies with jelly.</p>
