A big shout out to Just Me For Now, a team of but one intrepid player, going up against the trios and quartets and quintets of power players on the Pitfire patio last night and recording a respectable 33 points! Perhaps next week it'll be "Just the Two (or More) of Us"!? In the meantime, good job, and it was great to meet you, Bob!
The scores were close - very close - through the first four rounds. But A Team Has No Name broke out of the pack with a successful double in Round 5, correctly identifying Case Keenum as the LA Rams' starting quarterback. That gave 'em a lead that they never relinquished.
We Always Come From Behind - an out-of-town team (who came all the way from Pasadena) paid us a visit last night, and finished in fourth place. They might have finished higher, if they had identified Chinese superstar Fan BingBing as one of the world's highest-paid actresses last year.
Why do I mention this? Because who could pass up a chance to say "Fan BingBing" as often as possible!? Right? Right!
We'll be out on the patio again next Tuesday. Come on out and join us, for pizza, trivia, and perhaps a little more fanbingbing!!
