INTERESTING MOMENTS

When the batteries ran out in the mic at one venue, one team earned bonus points for being the first to produce spares so the show could go on.

We had a bunch of very blokey teams, only one of whom recognised one of the main characters in The Gilmore Girls. Guys, you need more diversity on your trivia teams.

When we asked about who got married to a 67 year old woman recently, instead of Rupert Murdoch one team said “some young hunk” which is about as far as it’s possible to get from the right answer, and another said “definitely not Leonardo DiCaprio” which is actually pretty close to bang on.

And it looks like the winners of the current quarterly tournament can’t be caught.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We were selling clues at a fundraising quiz, and a shocking number of people bought clues only to find out they were already right.

One team finally had members old enough to be able to actually win the 7th place bottle of wine as a prize at one venue. It was a big deal for them.

And our leaders are still on top with just three weeks left in our quarterly tournament.
