Mardi Gras fever hit the King Trivia Pub Quiz crowd at Killarney's as many
patrons, players and non-players alike showed up in spirit wearing beads and
hats in support of our neighboring state's New Orleans based celebration. So
too, did our KT quiz honor that particular institution with its own Picture
Round with some particularly tough NOLA themed TV and movie shots. Great
stuff! One of our regular teams, the Poonswagglers, temporarily changed
their name in similar fashion to pay homage to Fat Tuesday by christening
themselves, Krewe de Swaggelee' de la Poon for the evening.
Four newbies joined in the fun for last night's game. Two Bags bagged it
early, though they confessed to having a good time. The Drivers drove themselves
home after a few rounds. Meow Mix mixed it up with the best of them and
funnily enough, their chosen team name happened to be the answer to the first
question of the evening! How's that for Kat-met? And Kat-sandra like in
prophecy, they could not avoid a cat-tastrophe! (Somebody stop me!) Newbie
team number four, the Couch Potatoes, hashed themselves into a third place
win! Congratulations!
Tequila Mockingbird did their usual resident champ routine while Pickles on a
Plate served up for second place. All in all, a pretty good quiz set down by
our quiz overlords with diverse question sets ranging from cell phone branding
to Lord of the Rings lore. Happy fasting everyone!
