Happy Cinco De Mayo from us at the Tilted Mash to you!
Today two teams spent the holiday with us to duke it out. They were neck and neck changing their positions at least multiple times, but only one team could claim a prize this week. The final round made all of the difference as "Masks On Pants Off Dance Off" took home the the imaginary championship trophy with a 7 point lead!
*******************Spotlight on Our Teams**********************
Tonight I was able to sit down with the team "Masks On Pants Off Dance Off". This group of friends was from all over the surrounding area, but are long time trivia champions made from a nurse, electrical engineer, and a few folks from the I.T. department.
I was able to catch up with "Just For Fun" after the show who brought along a friend who was joining us tonight currently on leave from his army base in North Carolina where he keeps track of the stats of his fellow soldiers' physical performance and health. Thankyou for your service!
*******************Fun Fact of the Week*************************
Contrary to popular belief, Cinco De Mayo is not the holiday that celebrate's Mexico's independence. On May 5th, 1862 the Battle of Puebla was waged between the Mexican Army and French Army on Mexican soil. Against great odds, the Mexican Army claimed victory over their more heavily armed enemy. On May 9th, President Juarez declared the anniversary of the battle a national holiday. The true declaration of Mexican independence was claimed from Spain back in 1810, over half a century before this battle even took place!
