Nothing like a little friendly competition among brothers.
On Saturday,An Affair – Young Stepmother (2019) twins from Lincoln, Nebraska, found themselves in an epic battle to win the 30th annual Lincoln Public Schools Spelling Bee.
As the Lincoln Star Journalreports, 12 year-olds Eswar and Sankar Ramamurthy found themselves in the final round — but had to go through 58 words before Eswar was eventually declared winner of the LPS Spelling Bee.

“We have farfalle pasta all the time,” Eswar told the Journal.Looks like all that pasta paid off — Eswar was the first to spell two words correctly in a row. An hour of words like “lapidary” and “Hanseatic" landed him $100 in prize money, a dictionary and thesaurus.
Eswar will also head to Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C., this May.
“It was anybody’s game until the very end,” Bhuvana Gopal, mother of the Lux Middle School sixth graders, said. “I know that they are equally capable and they work equally hard. Either of them could have done it.”
“This is not something that happened overnight; they’ve been doing this for years now. They put in a lot of work and it’s paid off," she explained.
The brothers competed against each other at last year's spelling bee as well. After correctly spelling "Byzantine," Eswar took home the title then, and Sankar landed in third place.
C-o-n-g-r-a-t-s to the Ramamurthy family!
