11/1 Recap: When the fish hits your heart with a big spiky dart, that's a moray

Alright. Let's get the bare necessities down at least here. Thirteen raucous teams, lots of heckling and loudness, two tables did rounds of shots, and I lost the ability to do math.

Rounds were as follows:
1. On This Day (In which we found out that Larry Flynt and Jenny McCarthy, among others, share a birthday. Also, there was something about Algeria.)
2. Audio round: Golden Shower Of Hits! (songs about gold; included Spandau Ballet, Neil Young, David Bowie, America, Ken Nordine and Kanye West)
3. Elephants!
4. Elections (Who was the last President to be neither a Democrat nor a Republican? Which character receives a Valentine's Day card that says "I Choo-choo-choose You!"?)
5. Name Threes

The team names rocked this week, like, even more than usual.
  • 1st Place: The Horror Movie Sidekicks
  • 2nd Place: October Surprise II: Kerry Does Democrats, Swiftly
  • 3rd Place: Courtney Love Is Not The Daighter Of Darlene Love

    and then, in no particular order:
  • The Little Way
  • Wikitrivia
  • The Element
  • Jews For Malawi
  • We Went As Tony & Janet For Hallowe'en!
  • Natural Blondes!
  • Can We Cheat, Please?
  • My Favorite Herpes Commercial Ever!
  • The Go-Tards!
  • Hooray! Transfats Are Banned! Because Prohibition Always Works!


There was lots more, wasn't there?
