You know it's gonna be a good night when the reading of team names elicits groans from the crowd! For example, second-place finisher To The Bat Coffin! (aka Carpe Trivium) generated a nice response, as did Adam West in Peace, who finished in third after a well-fought tie-breaker.
I must also make mention of the delightful team calling themselves Have You Heard? (aka Romp-Hims) who distinguished themselves by responding to every mention of their team name by standing in unison and declaring, "The bird is the WORD!" during each and every round of score results.
Delightful night for this humble quizmaster at Timmy Nolan's in Toluca Lake last night. I'd heard good things about this venue, and the reality of it exceeded all hopes and expectations. Funny thing, I once dated a girl named Tammy Nolan, and she eventually broke my innocent heart.
But the good quiz participants at Timmy's were a delight, and made for a fun and memorable night. Hope to see you all again soon. In the meantime, remember: the bird is the word!
