Twas the last Tuesday before Christmas, and all through the hub,
Every person was drinking, after all it's a pub!
The stage lights were on, the mic warmed with care,
In hopes that King Trivia would soon be there;
The patrons were nestled in teams with their booze,
In hopes of winning, no one wants to loose;
Mamma in her hoodie and I with my crew,
Had just settled down with a local custom brew.
When up near the stage there arose such a clatter,
We rose from our barstools to see what was the matter!
When what do my alcohol blurry eyes view?
With clipboard and prize cards, it was Quiz Master Lou!
The little old ham with his cornball wit,
Would soon have us all in a quiz guessing fit.
With a jocular intro, he called us by name,
Laid down the questions and the rules of the game.
"We got General Knowledge and picture round heaven,
We got the usual format in rounds five, six and seven!"
He spoke out a warning before setting to work,
About Double-or-Nothing and betting like a jerk.
Then the quiz started and all was alright,
The questions were varied, amusing and tight.
At the end of the tunnel we eventually saw light,
Quiz Master Lou shouted, "Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night!"
With apologies to Clement Clarke Moore...
Happy Holidays, everybody!
