Good morning, good afternoon and goodnight. It was that kind of day yesterday at the Irish Pub. We only had eight players show for live trivia and we did it in speed round. Just like this post..

I brought the camera in to take pics of the teams and Ive come to find out that my camera stinks. So for the time being, no pictures will be posted till the new camera comes in from Amazon.com.

Lets start with the teams for the night shall we?

Team Walo came in first place all three rounds and by the luck of the Irish, they also won the game. I wouldve never have guessed it. Dean Wormer said it best, “I hate those guys.”

In second place was the returning squad of, The Guys Over There. They had a rough first round but actually did well the second round which is usually their weak point. Great job guys, even if your cars are built overseas. HaHa.

In third place, yet regretably last, were the fantastic team name of, Friends of Grand Master Squeege. Even though they were a little late to the party, it was a valiant effort on their part by making it close to the very end. Lets hope that their watch is correct for next time. Maybe we should get them an atomic watch that is never wrong.

As always, thanks for showing up and having a great time with us and lets see if we can turn this showing around and make it a great busy night next week. Till next time. CYA!

An excellent game this week at the Glenn in Northglenn! We started the night off with a first round tie between the oft winning Gods of Wrong Answers and the relatively new Drive Thru Speakers. Drive Thru took it down with an awesome tie-breaking display. Round 2 and the tensions are high between these two titans of trivia and in a final question blitz, Gods of Wrong Answers took back the title! Not to be ignored the other teams, Mad Dog, The Dumbasses, Team Rehab, and The Nacy’s all made a grandiose push for the final round with team Mad Dog, a constant force at the Glenn, brought home the victory.

Star Wars Fact of the Day: Only George Lucas knew about the iconic line “Luke. I am your father!” During filming, the actors had a different script, and the line that was read was “Luke. You are your own father!” That really confused and outraged the actors and film crew, and Lucas had to concoct a lengthy lie about a time-travel based Return of the Jedi.

After a one week hiatus to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I’m back and I brought a little bit of trivia … I thought you might like it.

With 10 teams coming to the table Monday, JR’s was packed with lots of good friends and good fun. Round one started off with the constant team Sally’s Sluts taking it down with a nearly perfect first round score, though team Where’s The Flannel (WTF) and Team Clark came in close behind, and chased all of round 2 as well. Sally’s Sluts narrowly winning again by only a couple of points and all of the teams within a narrow margin. Naturally this only inspired the other teams, and team WTF tied Sally’s Sluts for the third round and with an amazingly close guess took the round title and second place in the game over all.

Star Wars Fact of the Day: Filming on The Empire Strikes Back had to halt for two weeks due to a wind-surfing competition in Australia that became an annual tradition of sorts for Lucas, and of which he refused to miss.

Alright, so here is some trivia I made up myself for once!

1.  How much does a 5 minute phone call to Animal Poison Control cost?

2.  If the dog you are dog sitting for happens to eat 18 laxatives, what do you do? 

3. How can you tell if Hydrogen Peroxide is effective?

4.  Why am I asking all of these weird questions?

Ok folks, sorry, long night but the answers will be at the bottom of the blog

We had a bunch of teams participate on Tuesday at 6th and Union Old Chicago.  Thanks for coming!  Especially the returning players, as you can see we are getting close to being able to work the tv!  Ha, ha!

WFiell alrighty then, on to the results.  For the first time ever I had a tie-breaker.  Not only did we have a tie breaker round, but the entire game was a tie-breaker! 

Rudy Was Offsides- Did you say “Thank  you” to The Return of George?  First he ties you for Round One, then lists the exact same answer as you for the tie breaker question.  Then he just says  you guys can have the prize.  Whatta guy!  Actually maybe I should say thank you, I didn’t have to make any executive decisions…

As for the winners of the whole game- Everyone did so well!  Sunshiners- Nice work coming right behind the 2 tied for first!

But it finally came down to 3 People 1 Dream and Rudy Was Offsides for the title.   Tie-breaker question number 2!   In the end 3 People 1 Dream took the cake (and first place too)  Sa-weet!

Ok, onto my trivia questions…

I was going to give you the answers, but then I decided that the person that gives me the most correct answers to my trivia questions gets a round for their table compliments of Barbara. 

See ya Tuesday!
