Trivia Saturday

This week we had 2 days of trivia due to our team somehow making it to the semi-finals. Let's just say we won't be making it to the Finals...

~ New venues (due to the increase of teams participating) lead to some seriously good people watching.  My favorite was the serious mullet that was wandering around.  You stay classy, dude.

~ When asked a question about Istanbul, singing "Istanbul" by They Might Be Giants doesn't help you determine the correct answer.  

~ Speaking of songs, there are other verses of the Big Bang Theory theme song.  Who knew?

~ Trivia people who like to drink come up with some seriously raunchy team names.  Not such a fan of these.  I like the teams at our usual bar much better. 

~ When the team answers every single question in the first half but one correctly, it's a fair guess that the second round the wheels will all come off the train. We missed 2 entire sections out of 3...

~  Risking it all and ending up with 17 points, goes does a lot easier when there are actually other teams that have less than 17 points. 

~ When you're feeling very smart because you've gotten an answer correct.  Don't logic yourself out of your answer into someone else's.  No points will be gained. (Apparently Mademoiselle is a new perfume by Coco Chanel not Petit Femme)

~ Being the only team with a team tee shirt makes you cooler than the rest.
