This wasn't much of an event, so we'll be brief. Trivia started with just J&B and Team America. Chmical Man and Stix against the "they get everything right" girl from last week and the other guy. Dragon, then Peppys joined in and Benky recruited B&N to play. J&B led after Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4.

First half, TV/ Music/ Mostly Sox.

Q: Opening day Cub pitcher 1988.
White Sox HR leader 1988 with 20.

Second half, Movies of the 90s, Advertising slogans and "I Sing, You Tell Me the Song".

This category made more difficult for J&B as Benky wanted the artist and title from us, when the others just needed one or the other. It's really a shame that there was no audio or video documentation of Benky's lyrical mellifluosness on such tunes as They Long To Be Close To You, the classic wedding standard "Always and Forever", Que Sera Sera (Whatever Will Be Will Be) and How Can You Mend A Broken Heart.

We asked if cds would be made available afterwards. There was no audible response.

On these, you had to get the movie year within 1, not the standard 2.

Armageddon came out ?Lion King ?Jurassic Park the Lost World? Answers will be at the end of this email.

Final Q was TV of the 80s and I can't remember the other choice, didn't matter since all teams went with:
1. Actor who played the dispatcher on Taxi
2. Actress who played Pamela Ewing
3. Sam Malone supposedly pitched for which team.

J&B won by betting the classic as Team America also got all of those right.

ANSWERS:
Sutcliffe, Dan Pasqua, 1998, 1994, 1997, Devito, Victoria Principal, Red Sox. Apparently the reason we didn't get our pizza from last week was that the bar was short kitchen help. Theoretical pizza would be next week. Feel better Lazers.
