QUIZ RECAP

Hopped up Quiz Master Lou accidentally announced he was at the wrong pub last
night when he kicked things off at the Lion & Crown in Allen last night! As
the back injury progresses and medications taper off, let us hope this is the
end of such occurrences. I'd much rather be writing about witticisms which
arose from talking about the Walking Dead instead of the walking wounded!

Team Thirsty Thorsday returned for some Viking action, but instead of Valhalla,
all they got was Loki's leftovers. Newbies Sofa King Awesome thought they were
being original but learned their name had already been used. No biggie. They
just went ahead and used the two point bonus as well! In a heartfelt moment of
spirit, team Bar Guy rallied for a big win. (Rob is still with us, you know.)
Street Smarts scooped up second while the most deadly alliance of Blood, Bath &
Beyond/Ship It! took third.

Another case of quiz writer overlording resulted in some tough rounds. You
could smell the gears burning as brains were pushing the envelope to guess at
things unknown. The Guess Who round opened like a floodgate of bottled water
at about the 4 point clue when teams awkwardly figured out it was Awkwafina.
The inspired Senior Senors round confounded some and elevated others while The
Irreplaceable Mr. Williams was just plain fun! Finally, guessing which countries
bordered the Baltic was a sea breeze for some, but the geography challenged were
conflating it with the Black Sea (like QML)! How about combining the two into
an area known as the Blactic Sea? No? Oh, well...

That's the way it happened. Have a great weekend everybody! And if you can't,
aim for mediocre. You're less likely to be disappointed!
