Miss sweetie poo

•We can’'t forget about the Miss Sweetie Poo,


she is an integral part of IG Nobel Prize.
•The organizers of the Ig Nobel Prize
ceremony solved an ancient problem: How
to keep speeches from droning on and on…
The solution, called “Miss Sweetie Poo”, is
an 8-year-old girl who tells long-
winded speakers to “Please stop. I’m bored.
Please stop. I’m bored…” Here are Miss
Sweetie Poo highlights from several Ig
ceremonies.
