QUIZ RECAP

A more quiet evening than has been seen here the last few weeks. Still a bit hard to hear at the far end of the patio with that gigantic planter with a tree blocking much sound from yours truly on the PA system. 

We had a good time, with some new teams joining us tonight, Walking Brain Capsules were in the lead for a bit but ended up taking third with You Thought We Smelled Bad on the Outside prevailing with some key double downs and Second Cousins taking second on a close game. Maybe they should change their name to First Cousins? The winners of the night also came through on the drinking round. In honor of Keanu Reeves' birthday on this day (seriously, how can you not love Keanu?), I had them write as many names of characters he has played (off his imdb) in two minutes. You Think We Smelled Bad beat the Second Cousins after a breaking a 7-7 tie.

QUIZ RECAP

Ohhhh dang a smaller crowd (especially at the start) but things busied up as the night went along and teams were bolstered by cavalry on most sides. 
Pasadena Peeps prevailed by a small margin. Finally I learned Bob's name and was reacquainted with Ken. Mike took the usual back to the camera for their photo. Katie and Cullen had seen my fun appearance on Mr. Mayor and we had some laughs about it- they almost brought me a pineapple! (You would have to watch my episode to understand- season 1 ep 9). It was a tie breaker for second place between the very aptly named Second Cousins and Los Colchones, with the latter eking out second- also congrats to Los Colchones for winning the drinking round. 
BTW- Happy Women's Equality Day- some people tried to tell me it was ALSO Nat'l Dog Day or some such nonsense but I am NOT going to sully Women's Equality Day with a lousy dog reference! I had them send a rep for their team (mandatorily a woman if any on team) up to compete in a TV Numbers game. Name any tv show with a number in the title. It was an extensive list that I had compiled but Los Colchones beat out the other teams easily, even making an Adam-12 ref! 

QUIZ RECAP

It was a rocky start but things smoothed over and it turned into a rather fun evening. I had three new teams near me in the front and I was able to interact with Trivia Rodrigo and Never Done This Before (nice job winning the drinking round!) to good effect.

We played outside on the side patio alley and while being stationed on one end made it a bit difficult to hear for the team at the way other far end of the patio, they were able to play the game just fine (as far as I know).

It was back and forth with Drunk in Public holding the lead for most of the game, but Purple Monkey Dishwasher had a couple of big double downs in the last few rounds to earn them first place. Third was rounded out by Second Cousins.

For the drinking round, I had them guess what Google's stock price ended the day at on this day in 2004 (their first day on NASDAQ).

Good times, looking forward to next week!
