You know Donald Trump has triggered a trend when not one, not two, but THREE teams pick names that riff off of his "you're a nasty woman" comment directed at Hillary Clinton during the 3rd and (thank God) final Presidential debate last night.
By the time we got started with the weekly trivia quiz, groups had formed under team names The Nasty Women, Nasty, Nasty Women, Nasty Women 2.0 and - just for good measure, "I Don't Know Putin."
Ya can't deny Donald the Trump is influencing the cultural conversation. Anyway, we had a robust group of accomplished quizzers competing for the top honors (and $100 gift card) last night. Bring Back $3.50 Dos Equis won it all, in the end.
The Nasty Women finished fourth, and would have done even better if they'd remembered to put their team name on their final answer sheet - a painful but valuable lesson for us all.
See ya next week, kids!

If you're gonna choose a team name like "Taking This Game by Storm," well, you'd better have the chops to back it up. And they did! Despite strong competition from Trivia Newton John and Heavy Lumber, who both finished just a few points behind, TTGBS never let the dark clouds intimidate them and never relinquished their lead. In the end. the Storm blew away the competition and struck like lightning to win it all. No one could rain on their parade!
