QUIZ RECAP

Late start tonight.  Reckoning I've figured out why Barney's moved the start time from 8 to 9pm. The Thursday night football game would conflict. We have had some close calls but tonight the game (no overtime) went to bascially 9pm. Apparently the Bucs barely beat the Cowboys. Tom Brady does it again. Well, the kickers did it, really.  I was worried there would not be places to sit since the patio was THAT packed. It worked out though, with one team even sitting in the front patio past the sidewalk (you cannot drink if you're sitting there though!).

Ok so we started late and we had a huge and lively group from CalTech. The app seems to be something we are all getting more adept at and the show is tightening up, time-wise. There was some back and forth in the first few rounds but the Pasadena Peeps declared their dominance by some key double downs and making their lead insurmountable going into round 7. Purple Monkey Dishwasher took second and Second Cousins took third, with the Peeps also clinching the drinking round. They were the only team to get all five of my questions correct. In honor of California earning its statehood on this date in 1850, I asked the teams to name the state nickname, motto, anthem, bird and flower. Congrats!
