QUIZ RECAP
Another crazy-well-attended night at 1739 Public House! A nice mix of old-timers and new-comers, so competition was fierce! We all learned some fun things about European royalty and people named Lee. It was determined that we all need to refresh ourselves on our children's nursery rhymes. And that we have some talented cartoonists at the bar!
Bruce Jennertalia was finally back on top this week! But not without some stiff competition from some of our new(ish) teams.
And the winners of this week's Drinking Bonus Round was Filthadelphia, whose 2-minute drawing from memory of Marvin the Martian was the closest to the real thing (see picture above)! Congrats!
See everyone next week!

QUIZ RECAP
What a crazy night! There were so many teams playing that your intrepid trivia host got to really hone her super-fast-math skills. Thanks to all for playing!
Competition was fierce for the top spots--we had some regulars up there in the rankings but a few of the newcomers really gave them a run for their money.
In the end, The # of Homeless Dudes Sean Would Bang If He Didn't Have the Flu Is... ended up getting edged out of 1st place by Girls Gone Mild, and Havin' a Blast Crisis got their wish for a third place gift certificate to support their beer + billiards habit.
As always, special shout-out to the winner of the Drinking Bonus Round--this week it was The MJs, who generously let us use their table for a lively, only slightly-violent game of what I'm gonna call Musical Straws. Congrats on being the quickest straw-grabber in the bar, MJs!
See y'all next week!

QUIZ RECAP
Ya want competition? We gotchur competition right here!!
How about a three-way tie for second place at 1739 Public House this week!? An impressive trio of tough trivia teams ended regulation play with 61 points each, with The REAL Clotbusters winning the tie-breaker, and Bruce Jennertalia in third.
That left The Kid's Table out in the cold, but hey! No worries! They've won before, and they'll win again. Or not. Time will tell, of course. Dig deep, Kids.
With all this three-way tie excitement, I very nearly forgot to give proper props to The Number of Homeless Dudes Sean Has Blown Is... who finished at the top of the chart with 71! Well done, Sean! (the points, that is, just to be clear.)
"Proper props." Hmmm...is that redundant? Maybe. Or perhaps.
Something to ponder until we trivia again.
