Tuesday’s at the Glenn are always 1/2 happy happy joy joy, 1/3 Preacher AWESOMENESS, and 1/4 spontaneous and unexpected mishap always with the hope of hilarity ensuing. Tonight the mishaps were tired of taking a back seat and jumped up, grabbed the mic and started to wail. Despite the microphone problems we had a fantastic night at The Glenn with a great turnout and some “interesting” submissions.

Round 1 and everyone thinks Texas got its independence in the battle of San Antonio. I had to make sure myself, but the correct answer is in fact San Jacinto. Moving on, apparently everyone is well versed in soap operas and dynamite, but not so much in Rod Stewart bands…I wonder if that’s a good thing, or a bad thing … 7 questions later and the teams were in a dead heat going into the final question with two teams tied for first and two teams just two points behind tied for second. The credit card question stumped a few, but put us into overtime in a tie between Gods of Wrong Answers and fairly new, but often winning FOP. Though both guesses for the number of Guiding Light episodes was incredibly low, someone had to win, and that winner was FOP.

Round 2 and the answers are divided all over the place, I like those questions because I get to tell the teams that their good, but have room for improvement, just like my report card in elementary school. The one shameful point of the night was when, mistakenly, I attributed the emmy nominated sabertoothed cat sequence to the openening credits of the documentary “Flintstones” when, of course, it is the closing credits. Bonus points to team No Chance for the correction on that one, however, since bonus points don’t mean anything, it didn’t really help. Yet another tie for this round, this time between teams FOP and No Chance, and in their ironic fashion, team No Chance claimed their victory.

Round 3 cometh, and not settling for being the team that almost was, Gods of Wrong Answers took and early and commanding lead. Their wealth of knowledge astounded children and frightened the elderly, as most things of this nature often do, and as the wee hours of the night crept in, a silence fell, and in the darkness, you could hear the whisper:

London, Paris, Athens, Los Angeles

And team Gods of Wrong Answers takes the round.





Star Wars Fact of the Day: During Star Wars Carrie fisher was 10bs over weight and was mad because George didn’t think that women of the future would wear bras.

Signing off, this is Preacher.
