didn't see much fruit in the first orange challenge, so we should be safe

That is probably because the first orange challenge had the special rule of no fruit.

Being Dutch this challenge should have come during the football season or during the queens birthday as those are the days when everything here in Holland is colored orange. Total orange mayhem at football matches when the Dutch team (called Oranje) plays and all the supporters are dressed in the most bizarre orange outfits. A sea of orange. The streets in most towns are lined with thousands of orange flags and banners. Orange is the official color of the Netherlands one could say. The Dutch Royal house of Orange. On the queens birthday every Dutch person dresses up in orange too and everywhere you look you see orange. Buildings get painted in orange, cars, people, bicycles everything you can think of get's painted orange. Some people even dye their pets orange. Just look what the search term "ORANJE" (that's "orange" in Dutch) brings up.

I once read a quote where an English football commentator compared the Dutch crowd to a giant jar of Marmalade!

Well, that didn't exactly turn out the way it was supposed to be. Believe me...living an hour from Syracuse and being an Orange fan...ugggggh...a kick in the stomach.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming. :P
