When I arrived at the Castle at 6:40, Bill's friend Mike and I made the total headcount in the bar SIX. When Benky arrived, he made the executive decision to have all trivia participants play on their own. With eleven teams, the pot was $40 first and $15 second.
J&Bs teams were Mindworm-Hilts, C&L-Chemical man, MG-Mike Trivia and Art's Music.
1st half: Current TV/ Birth/ The top 50 MLB career batting averages of all time
1) Bruce Willis' birth
2) Talk show host whose show replaced MadTV on Sat nights
3) The 2 current batters on the list, one AL/ one NL with minimum of 9 years history who appear in the top 50.
2nd half: Pro Athletes on TV shows/ VH1 top 50 of the 80s/ NFL 2009
1) Cartoon show Pro Stars had 3 famous athletes animated, 2 black 1 white representing the major sports (fantastic answer by Mike)
2) Sang Everybody Have Fun Tonight
3) Sang 867-5309/Jenny
4) LaDanian Tomlinson played inspired football. What event did he credit as his inspiration?
5) NFL athlete who appeared in a regular role on Saved By The Bell
We found out at haftime that Benky's 12 year old car started smoking around 183rd and Cicero, he pulled over, and was immediately consumed in FLAMES! He borrowed the GFs car (and brought with him a new, taller, box).
Mindworm broke to an early lead and held it til the final Q. Art's Music through the combined strategy of losing a 180pt throw challenge to C&L in order to score the 200 point music question shown above, and saving a throw for a 200 point Benky's personal life pro athlete on TV...was in 2nd. MG in 3rd, C&L 4th, J&B hold 4 of top 5 spots.
Final Q--PLayboy Dec 2009, 90s movies, 80's world seriesJ&Bers picked movies except the Mindworm who went baseball
90s:
1) the 2 stars with top billing in The Matrix
2) the name of the director of and the name of the main star of Groundhog Day
3) Famous actor who directed the movie Quiz Show
Series:
1) only team with 2 WS wins in the 80s
2) only team to appear 3 times in the 80s
3) 3 teams went exactly 1 win/1 loss in the 80s, name TWO
I didn't write down all the Playboy

I should be "in" for the Salero's event. Any word on Chemical Mans 's familymoving their vacation to accommodate the championship?
Madtv replacement was Wanda Sykes.
And I'll guess the Playboy question not listed: two covergirls (separate covers) - Joanna Krupa (Dancing with Stars?) and Chelsea Handler.
