- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 7:00pm
A great way to beat the heat? Trivia at the comfortably air conditioned Tam. The competition was hot as always though, with Flux Capacitors fending off all rivals in order to win the beach-based drinking round. And for the game overall, Trashley Wards cruised to an ice cold victory with a perfect score in the final round.

Whether teams play early and then eat, or join late after leaving the dining room, they're sure to enjoy themselves in the trivial hall at the Tam O'Shanter. Especially this was especially true for the latecomers who began friendly banter with the rather celebratory General Washingtons, who were able to drown their main game sorrows with a mightily impressive drinking round showing, during which they named far more AKC-recognized dog breeds than the rest of the pack. At the top of the main game's scoreboard, teams were packed tight. But newcomers Purple Monkey Dishwasher showed their mettle by finding their way to gold.

Quizmasterin' takes all of one's focus to do properly, so imagine the unpredictable excitement that unfolded when this realized halfway through the game that the bloodthirsty fleas living on his cats had made the jump to him. And were hungry.
Despite seeing their officiant being eaten alive right in front of them, the packed house put up a great performance, filling the scoreboard with high achievement. None higher, though, than the always gifted Clean Up At The Tam, who took the night!
