The pub also offers a wide selection of fine wines and 38 beers on tap. Guests can watch sporting events on one of the many large TV screens or enjoy a nice night out on the patio. Different drink specials are available every day and live music on Friday and Saturday.
Six Teams in. Three teams out. That's how it works in the
Thunderdome of King Trivia Pub Quiz at the Lion & Crown Pub
on Thursdays! Quiz Master Lou was a little worried when he
first arrived because the place looked dead. But then, as
the magic hour arrived, so too did the quiz teams!
Deadly Alliance trailed all night until Round Five when a very
strategic Double-or-Nothing put them out front and kept then
there until game's end awarding them First Place! The Rockerfellers
got Second while FNG's placed Third.
Pickles on a Plate hit that 4th place slot again. Newbies In the
Cloud ran last all night, but then registered their team, got
the two point bonus and wound up in Fifth, while Bar Guy slipped
on a DoN in the last round and lastly ended up last.
Some more great trivia questions from our quiz writers which
produced such gems as...
*The Picture Round demanded identification of cartoon birds.
Like Tweety Bird and Scrooge McDuck. The mirth kicked in when
one wag labeled Zazu (from Lion King) as Pazoozoo, which was
the demon from The Exorcist! I don't know what possessed them!
*The FIND THE CONNECTION Round's clever joiner was that all
the answers were acronyms, but one team's hapless answer was
that "They're a lot more fun when you're drunk!"
*Finally, Round Seven's List the U.S. Presidents that never
earned a college degree engendered an eruption of errata; ergo
the perception of intelligence vs. know-how. This prompted
QM Lou to consider suggesting that Mike Rowe do a special
DIRTY JOBS epsiode on the POTUS!
That's all I got! Have a great weekend, everybody!
