INTERESTING MOMENTS

Sometimes when reading out letter, we give the letter in the phonetic alphabet. That’s helpful. Especially when we say “L as in Lima” and the answer is actually Lima.

We played a mashup including the Pornhub intro music, and someone thought it was Playschool. Nooooooope!

One two separate occasions, teams argued for 5 minutes over where to allocate their points in our bonus round, when not one of their answers was correct.

And after 13 weeks we have winners in our quarterly tournament, though it was really close.

It’s the Richard Gere Appreciation Society, taking first place and the highest average with an 80 point win in the final week.
