I had a Legends of the Hidden Temple dream last night
I woke up and checked my phone and I saw that they were bringing Legends back, ages 10-16 allowed now. First thing I did was tell my parents this and we later booked a flight to Orlando. There we went to the old Nickelodeon Studios lot where they were doing auditions. I would audition and go through random tests. There was a history test, which I did pretty good on knowing that I'm an A or B student
. Then they wanted to see how many consecutive sit-ups you can do. Being an overachiever, I would do over 100 without stopping
. Then they pulled out the Olmec Wheel game. They wanted to see how long we can stay on this time. Then the interview happened. They just used simple questions about my life and what I would do
. Days later, I got a call saying I made it on the show
. So we headed back to Orlando, and went to the backlot where a whole bunch of kids and young teens were there. That was when they partnered us up. My partner was Kate, who was on the track team at her school, and we got put on the Green Monkeys
. We were the third episode recorded that day so when it was time to get started on our episode, we were so excited. At that moment Kirk came on and we found out that our episode is the Football of the Ice Bowl
. The Moat style on that day was the Rope Swing with the Net in the Middle. Kate went first and got the rope but fell in so she went again but then got the net, climbed over and swam to the other side. I would then get the rope and fall in and as I swam, I saw the other teams struggling too. Except the Silver Snakes, who as I saw when I was climbing the net, locked in to advance. So I climbed to the other side and swam across and locked in to be 2nd. The Blue Barracudas and the Red Jaguars would follow in that order (yes, the order was
) Kirk was standing by the Silver Snakes as we were led backstage to allow the next group to go. In the waiting room, someone came in and told us the Legend. I knew a lot about the Ice Bowl and how it is one of the greatest games in Packers history. After that, Dee Baker, the voice of Olmec, came in and made sure our names were pronounced right. I knew him because he also played Numbuh 4 on Codename Kids Next Door
. Also, to be a little off topic, have you noticed that there is a Legends pattern on that show? Numbuh 1 wears Red, Numbuh 2 wears Blue, Numbuh 3 wears Green, Numbuh 4 wears Orange, and Numbuh 5 wears like a Purplish Blue. Dee must've had something to do with this.
Now back to Legends. A producer asked each of us who would be the one to give the answers on each team. Knowing more about the Ice Bowl, I took that job for my team. We head back to the stage and Olmec told us the Legend. "In 1967, one of the greatest games in NFL history was played, the Ice Bowl. A game between the Green Bay Packers & Dallas Cowboys for a spot in the Super Bowl. The night before it snowed so hard and the temperature dropped to -40 degrees. With coach Vince Lombardi, the fans expected the Packers to blow past the Cowboys. But Dallas kept it close. With the score 17-14 Cowboys with time ticking, quarterback Bart Starr did a QB sneak into the end zone when no one knew it was going to happen. The Packers eventually won 21-17 and afterwards, Bart Starr threw the game ball so hard, it landed in the Temple. Your quest is to retrieve the Football of the Ice Bowl and bring it back here." Kirk asked where the football was located, and it was located in the Jester's Court.
During the Steps round, the questions were easy and Kate & I were the first team to make it to the Temple Games. Later the other three teams tie on the last step and the Red Jaguars met us down at the bottom thus ending the Blue Barracudas and the Silver Snakes. We then had a lunch break of Pizza Hut. That was when I found out that the Red Jaguar boy was actually my friend where I live, what are the odds
. Let's make the odds even better because his partner, Holly, was actually Kate's friend.
Now we were wondering what will happen now knowing that one of us will advance. The Temple Games would decide that. The first game was for the ladies. They were hanging upside down collecting mini footballs on one side and putting them in a bucket. Red won that game so there went a half pendant. So now it's my game, we had to carry a replica of the Vince Lombardi Trophy up a huge rigging and plant it at the top. Knowing how fast I am, I won this game and scored a half pendant. So now each team has a 1/2 pendant. So we are on the final game, we had to knock down defenders (those sack dummys) with "footballs" (it was the cannonballs, so this was the Warrior games). It took a while for both teams to knock down one, but I was trying my best not to look at Red. I knocked down 2 before time ran out. So then I looked at Red's score and they had 2 as well. You know what this means, it's time for the dreaded tiebreaker
. Kirk explained the rules and Olmec asked the question, which was "Who was the quarterback who made the game winning touchdown?" Before any choices were given, I rang in and said Bart Starr, which was Correct! We were going to the Temple!
We went backstage and we were given maps to plan out. We had 1 1/2 pendants so there was a half pendant somewhere. Then we were headed back and Olmec explained the layout. It was a Season 3 layout so there was challenge. Kate opted to go first so I let her. Now we found out the prizes. We already got an iPod Touch just for getting here, getting the football means we get an Xbox 360 with games, escaping means a trip to Wisconsin Dells!
Kate ran into the Ledges where a TEMPLE GUARD took her pendant, none of the two doors opened so she went to the Crypt. She then made it to the Pit of the Pendulum and had to climb after the column was knocked down. Now she is in the King's Storeroom and smashed pots and finding the key, but the only door that opened was the Chamber, where a TEMPLE GUARD took her out. Now, I storm into the Temple following the same path into the Chamber, and as I was putting on the markers, I came upon the half pendant, so I grabbed it and went to the Ancient Warriors where a TEMPLE GUARD took my now "Full" pendant. I actually gave him the halves separated
. I'm in the Shriiine of the Silver Monkey where I actually grab all 3 pieces and assembled the Monkey BEFORE I put it on the pedestal. I notice the Dark Forest open and I found the key in the Tree which opened the Jester's Court. I grabbed the Football with 30 seconds left and went through the bottom floor and escaped with 5 seconds left. We had won!!!!
I was so happy and we won the trip. That was when my dream ended and I woke up... in the Dells. So, guess who's on vacation.
