Hello again, contestants! We made it through Week 9 in spite of freezing temperatures here in New England, and now we're back for Week 10.

Week 9 Winners
I suppose that prompt was a little harder than I thought it would be. But still, some gems this week, as always. You all don't disappoint!

Rules
TLDR; answer the prompt as a comment on this post using words from a random Wikipedia article
- No resteem or upvote is necessary, although it is greatly appreciated. If I get paid out more than more than 4 liquid STEEM from these posts, I will increase the number of winners.
- Use the Random Article feature on Wikipedia to get your valid list of words (your "White Cards", for those of you familiar with the actual party game). This link will take you to a random article. You can use any word(s) on the screen - intro, nav bar, anything!
- Answer in the form of a comment on this post. The format of your comment should be two lines: your answer word(s), and the link to the article you used (see sample answer to this week's prompt below)
- If you want to keep rolling for new random articles, that's your decision, although it's not in the spirit of the game. If you get a very short "stub" article or something written in another language, feel free to roll again though!
- If you intentionally use a specific Wikipedia article, I can't stop you, but again, it's not in the spirit of the game.
- Feel free to add the word "a" or "the" or similar "formatting" words to your answer if it would help it make more sense or sound better.
This Week's Prompt
My Sample Answer
This is the qualifying format I'm looking for in your comment down below:

Prizes
There will be three shares of SBI awarded as prizes.
- One share to my own personal favorite
- One share to the crowd favorite (as measured by the number of upvotes, not the dollar amount)
- One share to a random qualifying entry
I've also set a small Steem Bounty on this post. All valid entries will qualify. I'd also recommend subscribing to @dustsweeper for maximum benefit.
This contest will run for a week, at which time I'll close it out, announce the winners, and kick off the next round.
Anyway, thanks for playing, and have fun! Here's the random Wikipedia article link again. See you in the comments below!

Thou hast my most gracious appreciation, I thankee, verily.
Oh my! I've missed quite a few. Can I take your mention above to mean that you play M:tG and Settlers? If so, let's play online.
And, um, the random link I got was this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donna_Pence
So I will have to use the obvious:

Yeah, I got nothing. After such a great one last week. And thanks for that one - I really appreciate your choice.
You have excellent taste.
I did debate using 'American' instead (for this week's), but neither option seemed great.
Haha, always enjoy your entries @hyperbole. I think you've won my top pick at least twice now.
"Champion" is pretty good, I can dig it. Reminds me of this prank call, haha. "Who is 'Champ'"?
