Pop music parallelism was in play tonight, for as the game began with a question about Lady Gaga, so too did it end.

In between all that, the Drinking Round consisted of a challenge to name as many Nobel Peace Prize recipients as possible.  The General Washingtons initiated a Pax Columbia with their victory, having named the largest number of Laureates.

Though the Vice Presidential Debate was scheduled for this night during trivia, a brave basket of know-moreables decided to forego the political spectacle and test their intellectual might at the Tam!

Their reward: a Drinking Round based entirely on - wouldn't you know it - Vice Presidents.  To the soothing sounds of Tommy Edwards' "It's All in the Game" (written by former Vice- and President Calvin Coolidge!) teams were tasked with naming as many of the 47 Vice Presidents of the USA as they could manage.  It was Aggressive Foreplay who managed most: 18 to be exact, earning them sweet alcoholic success.
