QUIZ RECAP

Post Independence Day jollity with increased headcount dominated 

proceedings at ye olde Lion & Crown in Watters Creek last night 

as eleven teams ("Ours goes to eleven!" with apologies to Nigel 

Tufnel) competed.   

Two newbies, styling themselves the Miss Fits and Dumb & Dumber, 

learned the hard way that all our regular teams are sharks.  

Apropos as there was a shark question in Round Three.  But they

had fun anyway.  

The Bumble Bees and the FNG's gambled and lost on the old Double

-or-Nothing.  You know, sometimes you think you know, but then 

you find out you don't know.  You know?  

Velvet Hammered did well until the end, then either retired 

due to being well hammered by well drinks, or maybe he just 

got lucky?  Oh, well...  

Pickles on a Plate were great, but just couldn't penetrate the 

winner's circle this time.  Maybe they weren't pickled enough? 

The Rockerfellers, slightly undermanned this week, fell from 

grace after a five week straight winning streak.  (You see?!?  

It can happen!)  

Our long absent friends Street Smarts snagged a well deserved 

third place prize.  They also get an honorable mention because 

Quiz Master Lou forgot to charge his phone before coming to the 

pub and was in danger of losing power before game's end!  Not 

to worry.  Street Smarts came to the rescue with a portable 

battery and kept QM Lou's phone in wireless juice til the end.  

Kudos to you!  

Deadly Alliance proved they were still deadlier than most by 

earning a second place win while the Dallas Booler's Club went 

out in style with first!  The DBC will all be going back to 

school so I'm told this is their summer swan song.  Perhaps 

we may see disparate elements of the group from time to time...  

Time enough for this missive.  Time's up!  I'm out of time. 

Yet time is eternal, so does a clock tick if no one's there 

to experince it?  Mull that one over if you have the time...
