QUIZ RECAP
Arrrrgh, matey's! Twas International Talk-Like-a-Pirate Day at ye old Lion and
Crown Pub in Allen last eve. Twere innerestin' how it come to be on the same
day as the King Trivia Pub Quiz. And there I was, Ship's Quiz Master, at seven
bells and nary a nautical question on me question set! Why, the closest we came
to anything near sea farin' twere the Match the Coast to its Country Round. And
don't get me started on how some goose livered dutchman got one of the answers
mixed up! Triton blessed, we corrected course in time. Me lips are sealed as
to the particulars, but let's just say that it were an insult to two countries!
We probably averted a war. 'Course, bein' a pirate and all, war's good business!
Am I winkin' or twitchin'? I'll never tell!
Those sons 'o sea witches, the Ninja Turtles, captured the biggest prize ship with
a 59 point win. Street Smarts, scallywags all, heaved ho a second place win
while those bilge rats Blood, Bath & Beyond (plus Ship It!) got third place. With
such a piratical moniker, ye'd think they'd 've fared better...
There's nary more to scribe in the rudders. We had some landlubbers join the crew.
A couple callin' themselves Fantasy Lovers signed on as powder monkeys and a lad
who liked to swing the lead fancied himself Final Borders came on board. It were
a crew on a rust bucket named Infidelity that played us false. Disappeared right
after Round One they did! Because... They were... Infidelity. Sons of sea
biscuits!
This here be Quiz Master Lou, shovin' off. Steer clear o' Jack Ketch, me hearties!
