Trivia Recap: Penultimate Week.

Well, it is official. The Trivia season will be wrapped up next week. That means that we have to work hard to hold onto our precious lead. But more on that later. Right now, let's discuss the week that was, shall we?

Start time - 10:00 ish.

End time - 12:15 or so. Actually, a reasonable turnover.

Core Attendance - James, Craig, Cindy, Steve, Travis.

Core Absentees - Kari (she had a lot of work to do....be nice).

Orange toques forgotten - Just Craig. Tsk. While I'm at it, Cindy and I both noticed that her toque came back a little "sexier" after Craig had had it for a week. Hmmm.



Pitchers of victory beer won - 2, but possibly could have been three.

Place for the evening - Second, behind the broad street brawlers. Now, we would have won a third pitcher of beer for that, since the broad street brawlers can't win, but since our whole team was gone, the pitcher went to the bi-polar bears.

Place overall for the season - First. By a long shot. In fact, we are up over team violence against women by a total of 51 points. Yes folks, it's true. In order for Push Her Down the Stairs to catch up, they would have to have a flawless night, and we would have to get fewer than nine points. After we get eleven points for the evening, we might as well just crumple up the rest of our question sheets, because we can't be caught at that point. Of course, we never would, because we relish the spirit of competition.



Name for the Evening - "Travis also spent his 19th birthday in a spandex suit." You know, it was awesome having her there, hitting up all the other teams for free drinks.

Answer of the night - Cindy and Steve worked out how long it would take a clock running five minutes slow each day to finally get the right time again. They worked it out, even while thinking there must have been a trick they were missing. Way to not overthink it, guys!

Runner-up answer of the night - James knowing where this crap is.

Bonehead move of the night - It's no Harry Callahan, but Kyrie is not by Toto.

"Dicks in your mouth" - 'what round are we on?' Craig and James to Mike Berry from team Frank. The beautiful thing is, that we said 'Mazel Tov' afterwards, without rehearsing what we were going to say in advance. Guess that means that the dicks were circumcised.

Triviagate scandal - Now that the dust has settled from the Marissa debacle, well, it would appear that their spirit is broken. It would appear that Marissa had a "project" to do, which meant that they were absent completely. This has taken them from fourth place to out of the running entirely. That was certainly strange. The only one of their (former) members who showed up was the guy who defected. Oh dear. So Marissa is out completely, giving Frank place to team Frank for sure. I'm still surprised that Push Her Down the Stairs clawed their way back into second....




Looking ahead - Only one more week peeps. Let's hit it out of the park. Ah, yeah. Don't forget to vote on the new poll at the bottom of your screen, and be sure to add some comments. I'm sure I missed something.

Trivia James.
