When strangers wander unknowingly into the brainy battleground that is a Tuesday night at Tam O'Shanter's bar, it is at first a mystery whether they will seek shelter from the sound and fury or cautiously inquire about the potential for a taste of the thrill of victory (or agony of defeat).

Of Keith wasted no time presenting themselves to the table of trivia after they'd figured out what was what; they sought a dynamic struggle between facts and teams and beer, and they sure were treated to just such things.

Hi Ho Silver rode neck and neck with Aggressive Foreplay for much of the game, until Foreplay's step faltered following a Hi Ho Silver drinking round victory. Though AG salvaged a bronze finish, the excitement at the end featured a resurgent team of Mules catching up to HHS in the final round, forcing a tie breaking final question. With their superior number crunching leading them to deliver a number that was closest to the US McDonald's franchise count, Hi Ho Silver secured themselves a rewarding double victory for the night.
