A pen, the lifetime biography of Anna Farris, and missed opportunity to check that little, tempting double or nothing box -- and suddenly a Barney's Beanery Westwood rivalry is born.
Defending champs Yasssss Queens, frequent money hoarders Alex Trebek's Children, and a group of regulars who spent their Wednesday night on a crusade to make Joy single again (with her newlywed husband at the table) - locked horns in epic battle that saw a SINGLE missed question all night between the 3 teams. #NoJoke.
In the end, knowing their way about non-Disney animated franchises and horror movie parodies, and drawing great inspiration from the legend Kenny Rogers himself -- you know, on a warm summer's evening, on a train bound for Barney's Westwood, I met up with some gamblers -- you gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to double or nothing -- and Joy Single Crusade did -- all the way to a nice round 1-0-0.
We've got a new contender for best answer sheet handwriting -- That's What I'm Tolkien About, the gauntlet was laid down this week by Team Double Gs.
We even got ourselves a new 3rd place tradition -- invented by the Yasss Queens themselves -- smiles in King Trivia winners' photos are reserved for 1st and 2nd place...
Temperatures outside are getting warmer, the sun is staying out longer, and the competition on Wednesday nights are Barneys is at an all-time high. Time for everyone to come through their gambling hat in the ring...
See ya'll next week.
