When Brometheus, God Of Jerks, walked into his therapists’s office, he did so with a bag over his head. “Let’s talk about this bag,” said the therapist. “Look, no one can know I come here,” said Bro (to his friends). “You think it would damage your reputation?” asked the therapist. “Of course!” bellowed Bro, shaking the walls and windows. “If it got out to my…my…” Bro forgot what he was gonna say. “Bros?” offered the therapist. “Thank you! If it got out to my bros that I was coming to a shrink, they’d never speak to me again.” “Having trouble understanding you with that bag over your head,” said the therapist whilst sipping her ninth cup of tea. Removing the bag, Bro then said: “This is secret!” he said, “no posts on Threads!” “I’m strictly TikTok,” said the therapist and laughed for a full forty-five minutes. “Well, we have to wrap up,” she said. “Wait, that’s it?” said Bro. “Yes, sorry. My next clients are waiting outside.” “Who are they?” asked Bro. The therapist answered: “A bunch of your bros.” Here’s the point: No one wore a bag over their head at King Trivia night at the Glendale Tap last night. Let’s talk:
Tonights Drinking Round was based on who could do the best impression of Alex Trebek. Also known as a Trebek Off, which sounds like a character in a Chekhov play. The winner was Queen Bees. Their prize was free drinks for all their team. Feel the buzz, bees.
In third place tonight was Dingleberry Farms with a score of 47. In second place was the aforementioned Queen Bees with a score of 59. And taking the night was When In Ramen with a final score of the rhyming 64. Join us every Wednesday night at the Glendale Tap for more King Trivia fun!

There's a certain charm to a place like the Glendale Tap. A place where Halloween skeletons ride in the rafters no matter what month of the year it is. A place where the jukebox plays tunes you can head-bang to, no matter how hard a day it's been. A place where, dare I say, everybody knows your name?
Every King Trivia match is special, there's no doubt about that, but in this quiz master's opinion, there was something legendary about 12/4's match-up at the Glendale Tap. Where the vibe was more about friends coming together and having fun than winning prizes. Where the talk was about the new Wicked movie and big, fluffy dogs sat on the patio.
Friends were made at this match-up. One lovely group, aptly called "Gizzards" even offered to share their fried-chicken with me, which I was all too happy to accept, as I am fond of fried chicken. It's moments like these that remind one that at the end of the day, a trivia team is like a family, brought together by love, with occassional bouts of tension.

QUIZ RECAP
When Kumquataneus, God Of East Asian Citrus, was putting the finishing touches on a nine thousand feet-wide fruit salad for the one millionth annual Fruit Bowl Of The Gods, his phone rang. Quat, to his friends, answered. “Yes?” he said. “Quat!” was the response from a voice that could’ve only belonged to Saladaneus, God Of Salads. “I need a endive for my mom in like fifteen minutes!” said Sal (to his friends), “can you do it?” “I’m up to my elbows in kumquats!” said Quat. “That sounds really personal,” said Sal. Throwing in his last kumquat, Quat teleported to Sal’s garage, where all the salads were made. “Why do you make salads in your garage?” asked Quat. “I’m not allowed in the kitchen,” said Sal, “long story.” With much dicing and cutting, Quat whipped up a hell of an endive salad for Sal’s mom. Sal went: “Don’t tell anyone I didn’t make this. If it gets out that the God Of Salads couldn’t make a salad, I’d never live this down.” “Secret’s safe,” said Quat as he handed over the salad to Sal who said: “Look, I lied, this ain’t for my mom, it’s for me” and inhaled the salad in one breath. Here’s the point: No such deception took place at the Glendale Tap on King Trivia night tonight. Let’s talk:
The Drinking Round tonight was a competition for whoever could the best impression of themselves at Thanksgiving the next day. A guy from Liverpool got up and saids: “I’m sorry I’ve shown up looking like this. I promise to clean and sober next year though.” He won because no one else wanted to compete.
In third place tonight was Ditching Thanksgiving at 50. In second place was When In Ramen at 60. And absolutely obliterating the night to a suspicious degree was MARSHAMARSHAMARSHA with 80 points. Yes. 80. Come back next week for more King Trivia fun at The Glendale Tap!
