Father, son face off at Scrabble

ADDISON, Texas, Aug. 9 (UPI) -- A father-son pair of Scrabble enthusiasts from California found themselves facing one another at the National Scrabble Championship in Texas.

Tristan Vanech, 14, and dad Bob Vanech of Venice, Calif., said their rankings led to a father-son match Sunday, the second day of the tournament at the Hotel InterContinental in Addison, The Dallas Morning News reported Monday.

"There was a genuine parenting moment where I thought, 'I can't beat him,'" Bob Vanech said. "But then I also didn't want my score lowered by losing". UPI
