When Clytemnestra's daughter appeared before the Trojan Tribunal and declared: "Eat this!" to the Elders, she was talking about her logic. As punishment, she was banished to the farthest reaches of Crete which sounds like a nice vacation by today's standards, but lemme tell you: Back then a banishment to Crete was like being told you had to drive to Stockton during forest fire season. No one wants to do it! Anyway: The vibe at Glendale Tap on King Trivia night was nothing like that on Wednesday night. Let's talk.
Everyone can do a a Michael Cain impression, and last Wednesday everyone did! The drinking round was: "Who Can Do The Best Michael Cain?" and the winner was Eaters Don't Eat Eaters. Their guy just got up there, recited some "Goldmember" and snagged the win. Yeah, maybe the writing did most of the heavy lifting, but laughs are laughs.
There's nothing like a third place tie breaker to spice up the night and that's just what happened for Beers For Queers and Eaters Don't Eat Eaters. If a Wednesday night crowd in Glendale doesn't know anything about Chaucer, who does? Eaters Don't Eat Eaters took third place with 63 points. In second was Just Here For The Zip Line with 69 points and destroying the room with 94 points was Fertile Cresecent Rolls.
Do come back next week for more King Trivia fun at Glendale Tap on Wednesday nights!
