QUIZ RECAP

I'd like to start by stating that I learned at this trivia night how to CURE HICCUPS! Over the microphone, I begged teams for their hiccup cures. One woman approached me and said "this is going to be weird." That's how I knew hers would work.

She stood behind me and plugged my ears, then had me chug beer. I was happy to chug the beer of course (Atticus IPA is delicious), but having a stranger put her fingers in my ears was a new one! Lo and behold, the bizarre trick worked. Maybe she's a witch. Take this information and run with it.

As for trivia, we had a hilarious evening with horrible answers. My favorite was the team who answered "hentai" as the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery... nice try!

Maybe three people in the whole bar had seen the coming of age movie "Now and Then", so most teams were unable to double in the usually-doubleable Round 2. Most teams nailed the Zodiac Round 5, but LOTS missed their doubled Round 6's by misinterpreting "Panthera Leo" as panther instead of the correct "lion"!

In the end, Sam's Family took the cake, TheOtherBarWasFull stole second, and third went to Pandamonium.
