Barney's Beanery in WeHo held a fierce Pub Quiz Tuesday 8/16/16.  We gave away 150 dollars in food and drink credit, plus five free pitchers of beer, along with stroking the intelligencia of twenty six players and teams.  In the end, it was SMARTER THAN RYAN LOCHTE on the podium for the first time, with regulars KIDS TABLE and GODRICS WALLOW separated by only a point for second and third.  And we all learned that the real reason Germans lost World War II because of methamphetamine use - hey, the name Heisenberg had to come from somewhere.

An Olympic sized battle at Barney's Tuesday August 9th.  20 teams took the challenge, but only three teams reached the medal stand.  TAMPONS GALORE 3000 stuck the landing on the final round and ended with 69 points to take down a $75 bar tab for first place.  And we all learned that it was John Hinckley and NOT John Lee Hooker that tried to assassinate Ronald Reagan.

HUUUUUUGE turnout at Barney's Beanery for the first week of the city-wide tournament, with 27 teams competing for a $75 bar tab and qualifying for the $10,000 tournament in January.  Though the name Adlai Stevenson didn't ring a lot of bells for players, Godric's Wallow rang the bells of their opponents taking down the top prize with a tidy 83 point score and twelve point victory over Cum From Behind.
