Whoa! Big turn out last night at Killarney's. Twelve teams, seventy-five players
and one Quiz Master! Also, only a handful of waitstaff because of a couple of
call outs. Poor Rick, our stalwart barman-manager, had his hands full with
only one waiter and a bartender. Nevertheless, food and drink were served and a
quiz got done! And people for the most part were civil.
Exciting play, too. Not Suitable For Work (NSFW) and their horde took an early
lead and dominated all the way through Round Five until an unlucky Double-or-
Nothing knocked them back into a fifth place finish! The Poonswagglers swaggled
themselves into a third place win while the unholy alliance of Blood, Bath & Beyond
and Ship It! took second. Tequila Mockingbird reclaimed their title of resident
champ once again by strategically doubling into first!
THE STYLE POINTS AWARDS
If you never watched ThunderCats back in the 80's, you might have guessed the
answer as Astro Pets, which one team did. This prompted Quiz Master Lou to wax
poetical about Astro Turf pets, who never need feeding or watering. Even less
hassle than a Chia-Pet! Our Find-the-Connection Round totally perplexed the
crowd. Absolutely no team could find the connection, though some of the more
creative guesses included Meat Monkey Lovers and "Not a g-d d@mned thing!"
Finally, the cesspool of celebrity worship which was round seven that centered
around naming the offspring of Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner and Kris Jenner/Kardashian
produced gems such as Ku Klux Kardashian, Klymidia Kardashian and Michael Jackson.
That's the KTPQ news here at Killarney's! Until next week, have a better one!
