INTERESTING MOMENTS
A new player identified Switzerland as one of her strengths in trivia. Not European geography in general, but specifically Switzerland. As it happens, one of the picture questions was a silhouette of Switzerland… which she failed to identify. This is why you should never say you’re really good at something. You just look like a fool if you’re wrong.
A question on fashion brands resulted in no less than three teams checking out the Levis logo on a teammate’s jeans. And the question wasn’t even about Levis.
One team predicted they would finish in 5th place. And then finished in… 5th place, which is impressively accurate when there are 9 teams.
And we heard someone describe a teammate as a nerd. Now let’s be clear. Anyone who comes to one of our shows is voluntarily taking an exam on a weeknight. NOBODY gets to use the word “nerd” as an insult. We depend on nerds for our whole business model.
See you next week.
