We went to a Trivia Night fundraiser for St. John school’s 125th celebration, and it was quite fun. Well, the food, the festivities and the people were great! The questions were not as fun because they made me feel like a complete and utter moron. My table – the Royuks, the Pesters, Curt, Annette, and Lloyd – were all doing well. I was trying not to say anything too stupid. The first round of questions were all about past Presidents and took a loooooooooooong time to be over, and I was worried this was going to be more like a MENSA test than a pursuit of trivia. Fortunately, it wasn’t.
They had 10 rounds of 10 questions, and our group finished somewhere in the middle. They had individual contests, too, and Beth almost won for having all kinds of crazy stuff on her person – a credit card, an insurance card, a membership card, a lipstick, a key, a ring, a calendar, a writing instrument, an address, a piece of technology, a tissue, a picture of someone not in your family – but she lost due to the lack of a nickel. C’est la vie. She and Harold made up for it by each winning a pie in a drawing.
Thanks for the fun night, St. John! Thanks, Mr. & Mrs. Royuk!
