Answer Submission Form for The Recess Room

One fateful day three decades ago, five boys picked up a game of handball during school recess on a Fountain Valley playground. They grew up together, became life-long friends and pursued their own ambitions. But they shared a deep love for their hometown and dreamed of one day opening a restaurant together where they could share good food, good drinks and reminisce about good times. The Recess Room is their childhood dream come to life.

Happy St. Patrick's Night 2021. Last year bartenders were closing up shop early due to Covid lockdown on this Saintly holiday of an Irish Immigrant  from Britain who was a young slave as an endured shepherd who later escaped and returned as a priest to chase the snakes out of Ireland.

We have no snakes to deal with on the memorial anniversary of Saint Patrick, we have trivia about Ireland and Canada in Round 7 to answer! As a Toronto born Irish immigrant myself, these questions are right in my ballpark!

Round 1 was 6 questions about TV trivia, famous chef, virtual reality, and Back to the Future trivia.

Round 2 was the picture round where almost everyone did well. Round 3 with the Patty Melt round was 6 questions about Ireland or Irish things. My favourite question was "The only Irish actor to play James Bond" is also the only actor I have ever met in the women's bathroom at the LA Sports Arena during a Bruce Springsteen concert. (He was waiting for his wife.) We were all alone and our eyes awkwardly glanced at each other. I told him 'This is the women's bathroom. Is everything ok?' He said he was waiting for his wife. 

Round 4 of Guess Where instead of Guess Who was a bit tougher than some of the veteran teams have experienced. 

Round 5 Find The Connection for 10 questions had two lucky teams who went for Double or Nothing. Well done to Home Team and Ava's Minions. 

Round 6 with the O'ccupation hand out was a crowd please with Home Team & Ava's Minions getting the Double or Nothing advantage again! Congratulations to trivia newbies, my friends, Jedi & Linda of the Lucky Clovers who looked so festive for this night of the wearing of the green. 

Round 7 was a curve ball....we changed from the Irish to the Canadians! A bit tricky but these are inquisitive walking encyclopedias who have fun with us every Wednesday night at the Recess Room!

Thank you to Roy, Samantha, Joe, Thomas, Jorge and the kitchen staff for great hospitality, music, drinks and food. Wonderful ambiance. A memorable St. Patrick's night for this Dubliners' Daughter.
