What a surprise this past weekend had in store for CAG Box Office. Only 6 CAG's chose R.V. as the number one movie in America. And of those 6, Tyga24 extended his/her wins to 7, moving to a lone first place. Some other movers and shakers this week: darkmere and Maklershed moved up to 6 wins, Stevesbored moved up to 3 wins, pinoy530 has his second win in a row and is at 2 wins, and TimPV3 got his first win. Congratulations to you all!
What a weekend it was for movie goers. Even though R.V. was #1, it was a VERY close race for second between 9/11 themed United 93 and gymnastics go getter Stick It. Even Silent Hill still seemed to be in the running.
