QUIZ RECAP

When Flipaneus, God Of Somersaults, finished his floor routine of one million straight somersaults at the One Millionth Annual Gods Of Tumbling Show, he thought for sure everyone would give him a levitation ovation. (You see, gods, when showing their approval for a performance, don’t just stand in applauding support for what they’ve seen; they raise themselves into the air and clap on high for the feat of wonder they’ve just witnessed.) But no such ovation was there. Flip (to his friends) discovered the entire auditorium had gone empty. He turned to the official and asked: “Where the hell did everyone go?” and the official said: “By flip number two hundred thousand, they saw how long this was gonna take and went home with every plan to come back before you finished. But you ramped up your speed by flip number eight hundred and fifty thousand and finished faster than they thought. They should be back any second.” “Crazy,” said Flip, and then said: “How’d I do by the way?” “Flip number seven hundred thousand six hundred and twenty-three wasn’t complete so you’ll have to do it again,” said the official. And so Flip devoted (as did the returning audience) the next three weeks of his life to starting over and beginning all one million somersaults again. Here’s the point: “The entire night at the Glendale Tap last night was exactly like this. Let’s talk:

The Drinking Round was a Frankenstein Off: the best impression of Frankenstein’s monster won free drinks. A guy with a  cane took the prize! Anyone can win!

In third place tonight was Gen Z with 52 poijnts who had a tie breaker with Is This Multiple Choice? who took second with a good guess at how many million liters of beer were drunk at Munich’s Octoberfest last year. And, taking the whole night, was When In Ramen with 73 points! It’s great to be back after three weeks of no trivia! Come back next week for more King Trivia fu at the Glendale Tap!
