The Lion & Crown Pub, an English-style pub with a large and varied menu, is open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. serving lunch, dinner and daily specials. The pub also offers a wide selection of fine wines and 38 beers on tap. Guests can watch sporting events on one of the many large TV screens or enjoy a nice night out on the patio. Different drink specials are available every day and live music on Friday and Saturday.
"Lights! Camera! Action!" goes the old cliche about getting
business going on a film or TV set and that adage would seem to
fit this week's King Trivia Pub Quiz as the lights came back on,
(at least the one on stage that was dark last week) the camera
took pictures (the one in my phone) and the action got going
with five teams competing at the Lion & Crown.
Pickles on a Plate returned (and why shouldn't they with a third
consecutive first place win this week?!?). Our old friends the
Rockerfellers came back this week. Nice to see familiar faces
(or least half of them). A big howdy to newbie teams Gorgak's
Revenge (obscure Futurama reference much appreciated-"Good news
everyone!"), Little Men in a Boat and Something About Mary!
Pickles pummeled first place yet again this week. Little Men
piloted their craft to a solid second position while Gorgak
oozed into third.
Hollywood seemed to be a component of every single round this
week. There was Leonardo DiCaprio question in the General
Round. Ronnie Regan was in the Picture Round. A Frasier reference
was in R3. The Guess Who was Mr. Rogers. A Humphrey Bogart
film was in R5. Hedy Lamarr was an answer in R6. R7 was an all
movie round. Yep. Makes one wonder at how intertwined our
culture is with Hollywood. Or at least, Hollywood nostalgia.
That's it for this week. Holidays are coming! Be of cheer!
See you next week!
