No crazy rain is going to stop the denizens of Hyperion Public from coming out and enjoying their trivia. The roads might be washed away, but their love of showing off useless facts has stood the battering weather, and the people returned in droves to participate.

The lead shifted back and forth throughout the night, but in the end it was Fifth Place or Bust who busted out of fifth and into first with two solid doubles in a row. Just behind them and the winners of a tie-breaker was Boner Tambourine (they had neither boners nor tambourines) who edged out Ship of Fools by a narrow margin. The drinking round was stolen by Trivia Newton John and their impressive Disney know-how.

But the real hero of the night was once again my assistant Madeline, who was my official King Trivia Ring Girl(TM). For each round, she walked around the bar with the number held high, so that the teams participating knew just where we were, and each time she was met with thunderous applause. And then she was there to present the winning teams with their plunder. I couldn't have done it without Madeline - and she doesn't even turn eight for another month!
