Pubquizzing, we’re pubquizzing

Filed under: — jen

On the first Tuesday of every month at 8:00 pm sharp(ish) we can be found upstairs at Hurley’s Irish Pub pubquizzing our little hearts out. Most of us take turns being the quizmaster and writing the questions and the make-up of the teams often varies.

On every other Monday night during the school year, we can be found at the McKibbins pubquiz. The McKibbins pubquiz is a more formal set-up. The quiz is always hosted by the same person, the lovely and talented Sean Murphy and the quiz begins at 8:00pm(ish, very ish, really extremely ish, more like 8:40pm). Teams are made up of not more than four people and teams choose names that they use throughout the season. Last year we were known as “We’re not Slytherin”. Our team is made up of Mark, Kim and me. Occasionally we have a special guest star fourth. One of our rival teams last year was “Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps”. Kim works with one of the guys on the team and a certain gloating ritual has developed between them.

This season we are considering changing our team name, so far, Kim has come up with the following suggestions:

1) And The Winner of a $25 McKibbin’s Gift Certificate Is…
2) We’re Not 2 Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps
3) What Would Sipowicz Do?
4) The Googlewhacks
5) Hell’s Wombats
6) The Da Vinci Code Sucks
7) We Are Not a Real Trivia Team, We Just Act Like One Sometimes.
8) I’m on My Second Cup of Starbucks at Van Houtte
9) I’m Really Tired
10) Give Me Candy Now
11) I’m Going Home For a Nap

Stay tuned to find out what we decide.

Oh, isn’t it wild
