Quiz Schedule
The Upper Decks, Mondays at 7 		Chris LaRue (The R-U-E)

The warrior known now as Chris LaRue was born immortal in the Scottish highlands in the 1500's. He was able to keep his clan's secret for centuries until being discovered by Sean Connery in New York in 1985. LaRue escaped to live another day, and Connery played himself in the film adaptation of the encounter.

 

Chris enjoys origami unicorns, Irish whiskey (that isn't made by Protestants), and anything covered in queso.

Thanks to everyone who came out and made this - literally - the biggest night we've had at Strange Brew to date! 13 teams is our all-time best (as of right now), but I know we can beat that. Next goal, 20!

Thanks also to everyone for sitting through tonight's round 2, Bad Youtube Karaoke, because fuck that was awful. If I want to hear Journey sung by an atonal amateur, I'll watch Glee, thanks very much. (Disclaimer: Please do not ever watch Glee. It is known to reduce fertility in men and to cause horrific brain hemorrhaging in those with triple-digit IQs).

In two rounds I learned the following two facts about all of you: 1) most of you haven't seen (or don't remember much of) Twin Peaks and 2) you guys don't know much Shakespeare. Every time I try to culture you guys up, it gets met with jeers of "bring back the awful karaoke!" Well, go to hell; I love Shakespeare. You should, too. That shit's stood the test of time.

I'll see you all next Thursday same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.

Be good to yourselves and each other.

Time for the rainy day playlist!* Thanks to all of you who braved the elements to make this (all things considered) a fantastic week at Strange Brew.

Judging by some of the scores, you guys must have found this week's quiz to be brutal! Like the man said, some nights you eat the bear and some nights the bear eats you. I'm guessing this was a bear-eats-you kind of night. 

Some of you got to experience the quiz from inside for the first time, like, ever tonight! I do enjoy my job so much more when there's an actual audience for what I do. I suppose I should thank the rain for that. 

And we had our very first tie-breaker dance-off tonight! Angela of team 2 Girls 1 Quiz danced her very best, but in the end, Rachel of Dr. Fünke's 100% All-Natural Good Time Family Band Solution was the superior dancer and scored a strong second place for her team. Thanks to both of you for being awesome (and not at all hard on the eyes)!

You know we're just getting started. Official prediction! This summer is gonna be LEGEN-wait for it!-DARY.

Be good to yourselves and each other.

Man, if I'd known how much you guys were gonna miss me, I never would have taken a week off! Thank you all for making me feel loved (or at very least appreciated). And also many thanks to Ozzy for treating my baby with such care. He's a strange fella, but we like him.

So what, Strange Brew, did we learn this week? 

* The USS Constitution was nicknamed "Ol' Ironsides." 

* Despite being featured in three or four long-running TV series and at least 11 movies, some of you still cannot identify the Enterprise.

* Most of you naturally assumed that the Simpsons was one of the 10 shows to have been a year-long ratings winner since 1990, even though it wasn't.

* Del Amitri is not Blues Traveler, even if they kinda sound the same

* I know the whole theme song to All in the Family

* Some of you, for some reason, really like Dubstep

It was a real nail-biter this week, with only one point difference between first, second, third, and fourth place. Congratulations to team Frantastic for jumping ahead at the last minute after a very strong round 8 to secure a narrow albeit decisive victory.

I'll see you all next week (and every week) at Strange Brew, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel. 

Now, if you'll all excuse me, I'm going to kick off a badass (if ill-advised) all-nighter with a midnight screening of Avengers.
