Last Night's Recap - Darn You Waterfront Wednesday

One of the great things about living in Louisville is that there is always something to do. Last night's weather was amazing and just so happened to be the kickoff of this year's Waterfront Wednesday. How do you compete with that? Attendance at trivia was a bit lower than usual, but we deal.

We had a fun game (don't we usually?) Chris was back at The Bard's Town from a nice trip to California, we had a one-hit wonders round from the '90s. It was just magical. One woman at Molly's yelled out "RUMPSHAKER!" when that song started to play. We let that one slide.

Team 309 was a no-show at Molly's, so we had a new champion creatively named Ice Bank Mice Elf. At The Bard's Town, frequent winning team Six Hour Peacock grabbed the win.

Last Night's Recap - February 11

Brandon subbed in for Annie last night at Molly Malone's while she was off to Cedar Rapids for a work trip. Cedar Rapids in the middle of winter. Sounds fabulous!

We had a good number of teams playing and despite the UofL game being on, things went smoothly. There were a couple of hard-to-pronounce words in the Foot Round, but after some self-deprecating jokes, it went over well. The Love Song music round went well this time due to a quieter audience. We ended up with a three-way tie for 1st place with the winner, 5 Dwarfs, taking the tie breaker question.

Over at The Bard's Town, we had a smaller-than-usual crowd, but it was still a blast. Six Hour Peacock walked away with the win and bragging rights for the next week.

Last Night's Recap - January 28

So...last night was all kinds of messed up. We had a record number of teams at The Bard's Town (23!). We ran our of picture sheets, so we had to improvise and share. What wonderful players we have. Over at Molly's, we had a little trouble with the audio round, so we just decided to skip Round 5 all together. Hey, it happens. We'll try it again next week and make it work. No pictures of the winning teams. We'll work on that as well.

We did have a question about our '90s round and the predecessor of Darth Vader in 1999's The Phantom Menace. The question at hand? "What was the name of Darth Vader’s predecessor with trademark a black and red face, horns on his head, and who used a double edged light saber in 1999’s Star Wars: The Phantom Menace?" We'll let you be the judge.

At Molly's, the winning team was Turn On The Heat with 93 points.  At The Bard's Town, Six Hour Peacock had 94 points.
