Way to go, Tuesday crew! 

Gruesome Twosome brought on special guest, dancing Damien, who got exposed to an art lesson tonight with Famous Paintings from the connection round, then Karla showed us all her hefty knowledge in Game Show Hosts and also Eddie Murphy movies with our even-number rounds, and then Chris showed off his Shure microphone which looked super pro for SHURE! 

Thank you for the loovely birthday wishes! Jerry and Chris concurred that the Porto's Tres Leches is out of this world delish and Karla will put it on her bucket list for when she is Coming to America! (Eddie Murphy round throwback 🙂 

We saw GG EZ PZ and Fantastic Four vying for the lead through ties in Rounds One and Two, then Turkey Dinner caught up by Round Three, and GG EZ PZ took the W after the final round, showing just how they were the bee's knees INDEED! 

Congrats again to Karla for doubling down for Round Two and really throwing down!! And yes, I should have been in a cameo for that round...

We had a very big exciting game today with new friends and familiar faces -- and even got to all chat about which pubs we used to host / play at before Zoom brought us all together 🙂 

Round One saw a five-way tie for third place, a three-way tie for second place, and a three-way tie for first place. 

The Commencement Speaker round made us both laugh and cry -- with Mindy Kaling's tree stump and Laverne Cox motivating us not to give up before the breakthrough -- and the Connection brought us to all the dolla and non-dolla Bills. 

Ties started to get broken and the dreaded sports round was not-so-dreaded by So Many Guesses, who pulled into 56 points and kept on soaring up and well into a PERFECT GAME tonight! 

Like I said, I've only seen those happen in baseball so it is quite fulfilling to see it happen at our Tuesday night trivia! 

And Round Five marsupials had Karla feelin' right at home so I got all the feels, too 🙂

Tonight was all about artists as I finally learned what Jerry does for work and he gave great advice from his background with start-ups in correlation to my pursuit as a novelist and writer! 

We toasted to billionaires for Round Two, who reminded us all that we are all very rich...in camaraderie and goodwill! 

As evidenced by Texas 2020 joining us for the first time, and enjoying themselves very much with the collective help of the group leading into troubleshooting for the answer submission form for them, instead of trying to sabotage anyone at all. It's always solidarity over solitary here on Tuesday night 🙂 Fantastic Four even congratulated Jerry for his win last week -- as they went head to head this week. 

All the reds for the picture round and the fives for Round Five kept the game flowing in color and as fluidly as Beethoven's Fifth -- and we will go ahead and send Karla a 5th Avenue bar for always playing and showing up to our American culture-filled trivia from Australia. So neat how her sister's birthday is one day ahead of mine!
