winners!

we bested our previous best finish. splinter cell was in third place after the first round, came from behind in the second round to be in 1st after regulation, and then answered the final question correctly to take home the grand prize gift certificate at dexter's pub trivia night this evening.

believe me, we are riding high. this win is for you emily. league play starts next month and we are feeling ready.

great job, what was the final question?

the final question:

place these celebrities in order from oldest to youngest:

bjork
pink
billy ray cyrus
pete sampras


we wagered just enough to guarantee a victory with a correct answer.

dexter's is on the corner of north and johnson. it marks one of the corners of the beermuda triangle.

Try to be best
‘Cause you’re only a man
And a man’s gotta learn to take it

Try to believe
Though the going gets rough
That you gotta hang tough to make it

History repeats itself
Try and you’ll succeed

Never doubt that you’re the one
And you can have your dreams!

You’re the best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you down
You’re the Best!
Around!
Nothing’s gonna ever keep you dow-ow-ow-ow-own

excellent job on your victory! Now you'll have to pull a Ken Jennings and dominate for months there.

I'm so happy for you guys! And so proud of your win. I just wish I could have been there to see it (sniff, sniff).
