When Banquette, Goddess Of Bank Shots, was running the table for the fifth consecutive millennium at the Five Hundred Millionth Annual Godly Billiard Tournament, her opponent was not only asleep but had been for centuries. She would not give him an opportunity to take a turn. Banq (to her friends) was shooting shot after shot into rail after rail: she shot an inverted isosceles into the third rail; she shot a reverse robotica into the first; she shot a prolapsed bicuspid into the main rack, all within about a hundred years of one another. Her cosmic running of the table had rendered her foe Hederon (Hed, to his friends), God Of Headlines, into near-eternal slumber. “When do I finally win?” Banq asked the heavens. “When the ink on the Stone Tablet Of Gorganephil is finally dry,” a voice boomed back. After a brief pause, it added: “Okay, it’s dry.” At which point, the pool table Banq had been playing on opened perfectly down the middle, parted to the left and right revealing a large silo underneath. Inside, a majestic one-seater rocket with triple turbo boost (you know the type) awaited her captainship. She quickly got in, took off upwards and it wasn’t until she had reached three G’s until she realized she was towing a large banner that read: “JOIN EVERY MILLENNIUM FOR THE GODLY BILLIARD TOURNEY!” This whole time, she had just been an ad. Here’s the point: The Glendale Tap on Wednesday nights is exactly this kind of vibe. Let’s talk:

With Mother’s Day fast approaching, the Drinking Round was a Mom Off: one person from each team got up and did the best impression of their mom. Team Xtreme took it with a rendition of a mom eating donuts in a parking lot. I mean, how couldn’t you win?

In third place tonight with 41 points was Oh Oh Um Ahhh. In second with 43 was Foxymoron. And taking the night with 49 was Boogie Down! Join us every Wednesday night at 7:30 for more King Trivia fun at the Glendale Tap!

When Runneria, Goddess of Sprinting, leapt her last lump (a particularly obstructive bump in the dirt road before her, deposited there by the Cosmic Hurdle Society the night before), she was ready to accept her Leggy, a rusty trophy depicting a large brown ostrich bounding through the air. But instead, a voice from on high boomed down at her with: “Not so fast, Runny (to her friends)!” “But doing things fast is what I’m about!” she answered. “We would like you to run one more race! And that is the race…of the bag!” To her left was a large wool sack. “You think I’ve never done a sack race before?” she laughed. “With the sack…over your head?” the voice boomed. Runny put the sack over her head and it was only then that the Voice realized that her legs were still free to run fast and run fast they did. “Yeah, I didn’t think about that,” said the Voice. Here’s the point: Know your opponent’s handicaps. Let’s talk:

The Drinking Round tonight was a Sesame Off: the best impression of any character from Sesame Street would win free drinks. Everyone did the Count. Everyone won.

There was a tie for second place tonight. The winner of the tie breaker was Baby Fish Mouth by only being three hundred and fifty million oil barrels off the correct answer. So: in third place was Queen Bees with 43 points. In second with 43 was Baby Fish Mouth. And destroying the night with 44 points was Foxymoron.
