QUIZ RECAP

It was a slugfest out there. Our last 3 championship teams all showed up, plus several other regular teams. E=MC2 have come in second and third place a number of times but tonight was their night to triumph. A few bold double or nothings saw them through to the winner's podium. Courtney, Sabine, Manaiko (sp?), and Andre were in fine form, and even though I reneged on my promise not to call them out in front of everyone, they were able to pull out a victory. Damn they're a good looking group too.

Bonnie, Amy, Reese, and Katelyn were working today which means that everyone got amazing service, and I got all the leftover beers from the bar.

Cohort were in fine form, especially considering Sarah showed me photos from when she was an awkward middle schooler. It would have been worth bonus points had the quizmaster code of ethics allowed for such things.

Charles showed up and accused me of playing Rush just to mess with him, even though he loves Rush. Also, Charles finished in last place. I hope he reads this post. Spoiler alert: once Charles showed me his nipples in false hopes of scoring extra trivia points...

Wallets of El Segundo won last week after a couple weeks off. They assured me they weren't going to do well, but then they won. Just goes to show, it doesn't matter how loudly you masturbate in the corner tent on your camping trip, you always have a chance at winning King Trivia. Am I allowed to say that on this blog? I have a feeling someone will let me know if not.

Year of the Rat brought their whole family to play today. Rachel and Megan promised to buy me a "make America great again" hat... I hope she comes through on this promise because I love it when the whole pub boos me after each show. Also Tessa read the Harry Potter play and does not recommend it.

Quiz bros showed up without one of the bros, but they did bring a very pregnant girl who I unspectacularly complimented on how amazing she was looking despite being pregnant. It came out even worse than that sentence read in real life... Pretty awkward, this is what I get for trying to be nice. Maybe she'll name the baby John... Or maybe we'll never see her again. Time will tell.

Tequila Mockingbird in the house! Haven't seen these cats in months and months. Welcome back!

Charlestown Chiefs won the last two times they came in. But this time their table had been stolen by another team (wallets of el segundo FYI in case you wanted to fight them after class by the bike racks)... Nick, Kai, and Sina (sp?) informed me that Drew was not coming today, but it didn't matter because he doesn't know anything anyway. Just kidding, they didn't say that... or did they? Although they sat in the suspicious corner where every team is accused of using their phones, they got third place. Well done!

Team "winning" we're always asking for trouble with that name, but put in a very respectable performance narrowly missing out on the prizes, and looking good doin it.

Lil Sebastians were there and those girls are all so darn pretty that I kept forgetting to read out their score. Hopefully they'll show up next week and ace the Parks and Rec round which (although statistically improbable) could technically be a theme round.

Jesse can't wait were without Amy tonight which was always going to spell disaster. And no, it was not because I didn't have a music round.

That about wraps it up. Look forward to seeing everyone again next week!
