QUIZ RECAP

Things are starting to come back with King Trivia Pub Quiz at
the fabulous Lion & Crown pub in Watter's Creek! Oh, yes! We
had four teams competing and the noise in the pub was reminiscent
of pre-Covid days! Poor Quiz Master Lou forgot about vocal
control and started yelling into the mic. Yikes! Thanks to
Erwin and Junior at the bar for maintaining jukebox discipline.

It was great to see Pickles on a Plate back in action, making a
triumphant return with a first place win. Ship It! made a solid
second place (Thank you, Billy, for your loyal support!). And
a big welcome to newbie team Banana Hammock (you can always change
your team name later...) who came in third, but not last! They
even registered their team! Yay!

Our mirth department got some mileage from our Thursday FB
question asking 'How many miles of blood vessels are in the
average human body?' prompting one wag to ask us to wait while
he measured. The Picture Round challenge of asking the player
to associate a picture, which represented a state capital, to
then name the state the capital city was in, proved too much
for some of our more inebriated competitors, but that's okay.
Why that's funny, I don't know. Quiz Master Lou just calls
'em like he sees 'em. And finally, the Handout Round of matching
the setting to the play was QM Lou's fav (I aced it at home pre-
game with a DoN!) as an old theatre rat meself. Cosmic coinky
dink that Arsenic and Old Lace intersected with our Guess Where
Round's location of the Panama Canal. Perhaps next quiz we'll
have a literary round wherein I can parody Quiz in the Time of
Covid (with apologies to Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez).

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
