QUIZ RECAP
In the wee hours before Comic-Con, ten teams came to Longship Brewery for the ultimate showdown of trivia knowledge. It was an extremely tight race with less than a nine points separating the top five teams. There were twists, there were turns, there was trivia.
Factoring into the close race was that half of the teams successfully hit the double or nothing in round two. ROUND TWO and five teams were off and running. That has to be some sort of a record.
A few things of particular note: During round six when the teams had to correctly identify the voice actors for the main characters in the Lion King remake, there were a few wonderful surprises that I kind of wish was the actual cast. Such as:
Sarabi being played by John Oliver
Mufasa being played by Donald Glover
Scar being played by Billie Eichner
You can't tell me that some of those shifts wouldn't be interesting to hear. Speaking of hearing we had two bands come up a lot tonight. The first was the little known, "Sun Drop." Apparently, they took the underground punk rock scene by storm. I can't wait to hear their next album.
Likewise, for the Beer round, we asked the teams to send forth a single champion, who needed to answer the question by themselves. We asked - "If you were to listen to all 14 of the core Beatles studio albums in a single sitting, how long would that take?"
Amazingly, the youngest player of the Blue Light Specials was only off by 7 minutes and 40 seconds!!!!!!
When asked how he was able to be so accurate, he replied, "I saw a YouTube video that was called, 'Every Beatles Song,' and I remembered the length." Finally.....YouTube has educational value.
We hope you all enjoy Comic-Con if you're going OR are not inconvenienced by it if you're not. We also really hope to see you all back at Longship Brewery for more questions, next week!
