QUIZ RECAP

An awesome question set from our quiz writers at King Trivia Pub Quiz HQ as we
embarked once again into the breach at Killarney's last night. The General
Knowledge round was easy enough to get but just difficult enough to dissuade a
Double-or-Nothing. It must've been the isthmus.

The Visual Round was daunting. Too many teams went Rocky 2 instead of Rocky 3
and Troy got pegged as either The Scorpion King or 300. The Year of the Dragon
Theme round was also inspired. Only two out of ten teams knew who Gary Gygax
was, but the question of who co-created D&D elicited some great style point
answers! I offer you:

Al Gore
Ron Jeremy
Seymour @$$#$
Satan
Nerd in the 70's who couldn't get a date

Too bad Killarney's doesn't do drinking rounds. Dang!

Once they figured out that the Guess Who persona in Round Four was a fictional
character, the right answers came rolling in. Everyone scored something on that
one. Find-the-Connection Round was the toughest, with only two teams correctly
nailing The Beatles as the connection. Some really tough questions there. The
Castles in Round Six seemed deceptively simple until you got to Syria, but lots of
correct answers as well lots of failed DoN's, too! And finally, Round Seven
dipped into Jeopardy territory with its multi-word state capitals question.

All in all, a great quiz and great teams. Welcome back to the lost Mighty
Mellons and kudos to the Barflies, who managed another 11th hour win, adding
to their legend and spreading the wealth yet again.
