An evening, as described in picture captions:

Pic 1: Speak No Evil, See No Evil, Hear No Evil aka 3 deadbeats trying to find a way out of paying their damn bill

Pic 2: This is Marc.  He's 6'2, 164 lbs of muscle and a fan of mystery novels, chili fries, and the third season of Everybody Loves Raymond.  He is Caucasian.  Please call him at 818-544-3219 if you like what you see

Pic 3: I actually don't know who the fuck these people are.  I asked them if they would like to get their picture featured in the next issue of Teen Vogue and they giddily posed

Featured above are three carefully chosen pictures from the Facebook accounts of one of the team members of the three winning teams tonight.  I will include a fact about each one:

Pic 1: This is Tim.  Tim is black.

Pic 2: While it may look like Isabelle is a Survivor fan or a big Olympic buff - it turns out she is neither.  Instead, she is a pyromaniac.  She's been arrested twice.  This picture was taken prior to a 6 month stint in rehab after attempting to set Busta Rhymes' car ablaze.

Pic 3: This is not Phillip.  Phillip is actually more Freddy Krueger than Michael Myers.
