Last Week's Blurbage

Well, we had another really good night here at the Barn Door as 11 teams competed for those coveted gift certificates and a shocking outcome happened. It seems that I can now make the call on who is the weakest link on the "Don't Know Jack" team. 'Jack's Platinum Princess, the lovely Becky Brown, was absent from the show last week and her teammates had one of their best nights EVER. They had 9 of 11 correct in the final round to come from behind and hammer the competition. OKAY, it was only a 6 point win but, for "Don't Know Jack", ANYTHING even close to the top 3 is a win in their minds. Could Becky's absence be some kind of sign for the team. With the Spring 2007 tournament getting closer you never know what teams might try to trade members.

Finishing 2nd to the 'Jacksters was the goofy "Master Batters" who were 3 points better than "Out of the Vortex" and the 'Vortex finish brought a HUGE cheer from the rest of the house. I don't know why people pick on this team of geeks.....oh yeah I do.....I encourage it. OUCH!

"Wacky Corner" struggled in the finally round and had to settle for 6th place behind the "Grand Jury" and "Adam's Family". Even though they didn't get into the top 3, Katie was extremely pleased that her "Adam's Family" team finished ahead of the 'Corner people. Phil blamed the 'Corner's finish on Lori not being there. Yeah, right!

Welcome back to the Mayo Clinic. They played as the "Druids, Tygers, Ravens, Oh My". I guess they thought we couldn't tell who they were.

Oddity of the night.....Lefty, Carol and Chad were actually quite sedate without Stephanie in the house. Hmmmmm!

We also welcomed Gary back to his usual spot behind the bar. His short stint in the kitchen was apparently such a horrifying event for the rest of the staff that Steve made him come back out front.

Chad is still really confused!

See you guys Monday night.

This was our second show here at Annie Baileys Irish Pub in downtown Lancaster last Tuesday night and we were greeted by a small but enthusiastic crowd. With the aforementioned change to my show schedule I think we will see this show start growing rapidly.

Our winning team last Tuesday night was a surprise in more than one way. Do you remember our friends from "Cheeky Monkey"? At one time they had called themselves the "Trilateral Commission" and we haven't seen them since the Villa Nova East show ended it's run last Spring. Well, SURPRISE, SURPRISE.....Rod and his gang of misfits came out and reintroduced themselves in the best way possible, at least for them. They walked away with 1st place and the $25 gift card that goes with it and they put everyone on notice that they are back and shouldn't be taken lightly.

"Out of the Vortex" finished in 2nd place and sat in stunned silence for quite some time. No.....wait a minute.....'Vortex always sits silently, stunned or not. "S S Millersville" finished in 3rd place and had no explanation as to why they only got 3+ questions right in the final round. Matt blamed it on his girlfriend but, since there were two Matts there.....oh this will be good.

Parking is available on the street, if you can find it, and in the King Street Parking garage up the ramp next to the convention center site. Parking in the garage is $1 an hour so carpooling is a good way to save a quarter or two.

Check out their website www.anniebaileysirishpub.com for their menu and enjoy.

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

Last Thursday night was a bone-chilling, windy night so not much of a crowd was expected. It turned out better than I thought. Even though the crowd was small 10 teams came out to play and the "Bar Ks" wasted little time in establishing themselves as the team to beat. Well, they weren't THAT impressive but they did manage to hold off "Crimson Tide", "Off Duty" and "Out of the Vortex" for the win.

The surprises of the night were the "Crimson Tide" and "Off Duty". In the 'Tide's case it was the fact that they were the overall leaders going into the final round and they almost pulled off a SHOCKING victory. I don't know if the trivia Gods could have handled that sort of pressure.

In the case of "Off Duty", it wasn't so much the fact that they tied 'Vortex for third, it was more "how they did it". Let me try to explain. "Off Duty" often does well but last Thursday night, after the 2nd round, they were near collapse and fell almost to last place. Then comes the final round and they, along with the "Bar Ks", had 7 of the final 11 correct and came from out of nowhere. Sara claims it was all her doing and her teammates nearly let her down, especially mom.

LAST WEEK'S TOP TEAMS

1ST PLACE - 61 Points - The Bar Ks
2nd Place - 58 Points - Crimson Tide
3rd Place - 54 Points - Off Duty
3rd Place - 54 Points - Out of the Vortex
