QUIZ RECAP

Whoa!  Talk about packed!  Twelve teams copmprising fifty-two 

players participated in last night's King Trivia Pub Quiz at 

the crowded Lion & Crown Pub in Allen.  (As opposed to the 

Lion & Crown Pub in Addison, her sister establishment.  My 

counterpart, Quiz Mistress Christian, runs a quiz over there 

on the same night each week.  I wonder if this dynamic is 

causing some kind of metaphysical doppleganger effect become 

manifest in the phyisical reality ala an X-Files episode?  Ah, 

but I digress...) 

Scoring for twelve teams of such large numbers causes slow 

downs, bottle necks and traffic jams; Thus dragging out the 

evening in some ways due to the decision-making-by-committee-

process to some extent.  Nevertheless, we soldiered on in the 

quiz wars, losing a couple of casualties along the way. 

The FNG's showed marked improvement this week, finishing in 

the upper half of the grid.  A welcome back to Street Smarts, 

who came back this week as the big re-opening of the state 

moves forward.  A tie breaker for third place ensued between 

Bar Guy and Deadly Alliance with the former beating out the 

latter.  Rockerfellers rocked second while the Dallas Booler's 

Club bowled over their competition for first! 

Another great question set from our quiz writers with the 

Picture Round bringing the greatest challenge.  ONE IN A MELON 

dared teams to Idenity the Fruit pictured.  Let me tell you, 

some of today's exotic produce would've put the set dresser 

for Forbidden Planet to shame in trying decorate Robbie the 

Robot's table!  When Quiz Master Lou looks at a Dragonfruit, 

he thinks about the first guy ever to eat an oyster!  And not 

to belabor a point, but Rambutan sales must surely be down ever 

since the proliferation of spike protein images has hit the 

internet!  

Have a great weekend everybody, and remember what QM Lou says... 

"You must be THIS smart to ride this ride!"
