When Theseus appeared before the Tribunal during the War Of The Winds, he was all: "Before we begin this hearing, I'd like to tell a joke." The entire hall groaned. "What do you put on a sick pig?" he asked them. No one responded. "Oinkment!" exclaimed Theseus. The silence that pealed through the marble halls bounced from the columns to the molding to the alcoves to the windows to the citizenry of Athens outside. Wednesday night at the Glendale Tap was NOTHING like this. Let's talk:

Once I asked the room, "Do you all know who Fred Schneider is?" and they all basically said: "Yes," that's when I knew what the Drinking Round was gonna be. Who ever can do the best Fred Schneider wins free drinks. One player from The Jazzcats stepped up and did the angriset Fred Schneider I've ever heard. Transcendent!

A close one tonight with third place taken by Queen Bees with 43 points. The Jazzcats (otherwise known as The Schneider Boys) took second with 46. And dominating the evening was The Big Dogs with 48 points! Come back next week for more King Trivia fun at The Glendale Tap, won't you?

When Artemis halted the winds that blew the Greek ships during the Trojan War, she only did it because she was hunting and taking a bead on a fat boar. She had her bow and arrow all tensed up and the slightest wind in any direction would’ve fouled her shot. So, yes, she stopped the winds and for a while the Greek fleet had to hang out in Aulis which I guess would be the modern day equivalent of Chico, California: nothing to do there. The fleet was like: “For our trouble, why don’t you share some of that boar with us, Arty?” This was the wrong question. Don’t call her Arty. That fleet was never heard from again. Point is: There are no wrong questions when it comes to trivia night at the Glendale Tap! Let’s talk.

In honor of all the musical acts of Round 2, the Drinking Round saw one person from each team sing a song from one of those acts. No one should have to hear “Wonderwall” more than once in a night, but I was wrong! Treating us to the dulcet tones of My Chemical Romance was Jewel Thieves. Their team member practically threatened the audience to get the win and sometimes that’s all it takes. If you can’t win by singing well, you might win my scaring me. Great job!

Stealing jewels and hearts with a third place showing of 60 points was the aforementioned Jewel Thieves! Check For Fruits took second with 67 points. And running the show with 73 points was Jazz Cats! Meow.

QUIZ RECAP

When Zeus turned Calibos into a freak, Calibos was all: "But why?" and Zeus was all: "Because you're a jerk, man. You killled my horses. Literally no one likes you." And Calibos was all: "Okay, other than that." And Zeus kinda thought that was funny, but still turned him into a freak becauase, as Sophocles said, "Rules is rules." You know where else rules is rules? At the Glendale Tap on Wednesday nights for King Trivia. Let's talk:

Tonight's Drinking Round was a contest to see who could do the Best Impression Of Their Dad. One team member managed a really good impression of a sneeze, and the winner depicted a dad so disgusted by the musical "Cats" that it brought the entire room together. I have never seen more people in more agreement that "Cats" sucks.

In third place tonight with a score of 42 points was Dem Boyz. In second was the 46 points-having Queen Bees. And dominating again with 55 points was Fertile Crescent Rolls. They win more frequently than "Cats" keeps being bad.
