Quizzo, et. al.
What's a crappy night it was tonight. I had neublous plans earlier this evening that got cancelled, so I was able to attend Quizzo with my co-workers. However, when I was just to go outside, the skies opened up. The big umbrella that I had with me was not enough to keep the knees-down dry.
I get to the bus stop about five minutes before the bus comes, and about four minutes before the bus come, the rain significantly slows down.
I walk into Fado, immediately after my other co-worker arrives. No one else is there. The rain slowed everyone down, since we called to confirm that people were actually coming. Since we were there, we guilted a few more into joining.
Next was the team name. There's major pressure in coming up with a goof, funny team name. I deparately wanted to make a pun on Alito... Like Alito e olio (Aglio e olio - Garlic and Oil) but I couldn't think if the phrase "aglio e olio" actually existed. No one on the team knew either, not even the resident foodie.
I found out that Fado doesn't actually call this triva game, Quizzo, but just Pub Quiz. It also lasted forever... 2 general triva rounds, a picture round, 2 more general triva rounds, a music round, 1 more general triva round and lastly a themed round.
Interesting.
We didn't win, but we had a good time with each other, and we really didn't get to talk about work that much.
Oh, there was an Australia, a Jurassic Park and Olympic question.
