Group W comes from behind to win at Frank's

Group W have won at Frank's for the 8th time in 10 attempts, nipping a great effort by Dwayne & the Main Brain McClain by 9. W also grabbed the slightest toehold on another position on the All-Time High Scores List, their 158 tying 3 other teams for the final slot.

I tried to take a photo of the pa
ir, but this time it came out looking exactly like the original Avengers, no doubt owing to the peculiar physics of the anti-photo aura they emit.

The quiz ran very smoothly, and we had nearly a 100% participation rate among the bar patrons
with a number of large teams, which is ideal.

In last place, but with their highest score ever, I'd Pee in Her Butt both fulfilled Randolph's Law by finishing last with a naughty team name and fulfilled their own goal of earning the last place prize, which they missed last week by playing too well.

This week's last place prize was, and I swear I'm not making this up, a copy of the 'N Sync Backstage Pass board game, which as you can see from the photo they wer
e entirely too happy about. They suggested a drinking game, which sounds appropriate as I don't expect people to play that sober.

The final scores:

Beautiful Gold: Group W 158
So-So Silver: Dwayne & the Main Brain McClain 149
Shameful, Shameful Bronze: Peglegs 120

Also-rans:

Thinking Partners 92
Team Martin 89
I'd Pee in Her Butt 78

This game featured 3 lead changes, which is also what I like to see... a little competition, a little excitement, that sort of thing. See you next week, folks!
