Trivia night: thirds

Not much to write about on last Monday's trivia night. Rod was still remodeling one of his bathrooms and did not attend. Alan was there and we joined Darrel and Mona's team.

We had 17 and 16 answers correct for each of the contests. This was good enough for third place both times. We only did this good because one of team members is good with 1950s trivia. The Moonpies team won each contest with 19 correct. I forgot which team took the prize in the second contest as the Moonpies were ineligible to win twice.

We also submitted an answer sheet of joke answers, a number of which were mentioned when Ed went over the correct answers.

For one of the quarters questions I knew the answer.

In what year did Bobby Fisher become the World Chess Champion?

A member of the lawyer/judge team guessed 1974. This was wrong. I knew the answer to be 1972 and told Mona. I didn't play as I had no money, and I wasn't interested in any of the prizes. Mona won with my answer and she selected a pair of glasses with bubble bottoms. That makes six she has now.
