QUIZ RECAP

Well, faith and begorah!  Tis the day after St. Patrick's and 

there's no lettin' up o' the Irish.  O' course, the Lion and 

Crown's an English pub, but the good lord bless 'em, they paid 

hommage to the green just the same.  (Oim tinkin' Saint Paddy 

ought ta get his own week, not just a day!) Dat's da way King 

Trivia played it in any case.  

Five veteran and one rookie team/s competed for the gold.  Not 

in the Leprechaun's pot though, the trivia prize gold of pub 

credit awarded to the winners.  The Hunters, our newbies, did 

well and enjoyed themselves but also learned that the KTPQ can 

be tough fun and games.  Team Captain Awesome just barely lost 

out to Pickles on a Plate for third place.  The Bumble Bees 

took a respectable second while that 50 pound brained, alcohol 

fuelled, one-man-army, Velvet Hammered sprinted into first! 

In keeping with St. Patrick's week, King Trivia proffered a 

couple of rounds of Irish themed content and a smattering of 

likewise questions throughout.  On one particular querry, only 

one team knew the name of the ban The Corrs, but style points 

had to be awarded to the team who answered, "Not U2".  

And in the spirit o' the green, Quiz Master Lou leaves you 

with this little ditty, inspired by a CGI video of a line of 

chimpanzees doing River Dance.  No, really!  I wouldn't call 

it a deep fake, but it's worth a schmoogle (search term Irish 

Dancing Monkeys).  

When Irish monkeys are dancing

Sure, 'tis like the jungle Spring

In the lilt of primate laughter

You can hear orangutans sing

When Irish apes are happy

All the world seems bright and gay

What when Irish monkeys are dancing

They steal your banana away
