Photos one and three above demonstrate an important aspect of team naming dynamic. If you're gonna call yourself "Baby at a Bar," it's important to actually have a baby at the bar! And they did!
Actually, that Baby managed to finish with a more than respectable 52 points, so we have to wonder how well they'd have done if they hadn't have had to change that diaper!!
As for Lettuce Romaine Calm (who finished right behind the Baby, I'll just say that if you carrot all, you won't use that veggie pun name again! Peas! We're begging you, peas!! Er, I mean PLEASE!
See ya next week!
In addition to the usual fun and frivolity - capped by an exciting tie-breaker at the end of the quiz - at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale this week, Baby at a Bar won the Drinking Round!
So, in addition to the free beer for the grownups, a cup of delicious ginger ale was brought for the baby, who was at the bar, cheering on his parents. (He wasn't, really cheering. He was sleeping, and pooping his pants. Because, you know, he's a baby!)
See ya next week.
* Won Tiebreaker
The competition at the top of the scorecard was INTENSE this week at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale!
Beginning with Round 3, Harriett and the Spies, The Bad Explainers, and Why, Roseanne? WHY!? matched each other answer-for-answer, round after round right to the end!
Well, almost to the end. In all the excitement, your humble quizmaster credited Why, Roseanne? with a successful double (and 20 points) in Round 6. They answered the matchup round perfectly, but had not checked the double box for that round.
When the scores were announced, the Roseanne folks pointed out the error to the chagrined quizmaster, who was (and remains) deeply impressed by their forthrightness and honesty.
So while Harriett and her Spies won the night, Why, Roseanne, Why? won our heartfelt admiration. The TEAM Roseanne, that is. Wanna be clear about that. Media personality Roseanne? Not so much.
See ya next week, friends.
