washington generals


So for the past 2 months our Tuesday nights have been spent at Locos on Timothy playing a rivoting game of Trivia. We are asked about everything from sports, music, pop-culture, history, language, movies, you name it and its been a category...
Our regular waitress, Ginny, is super fun, and not only knows exactly what we'll order every week, she has at one point dragged me into the restroom to show me her tattoos(she has 2 Harry Potter tattoos, that I think are the coolest things EVER). I feel comfortable saying we've gotten close. A couple weeks ago I even brought her a surprise (Twilight hair clips) which she went crazy over! I hope to invite her to church, she seems pretty intrigued that we meet in a bar.
Here's Bill. He's a character, alright. His motto is lose together, win alone(hehehe). But everyone brings something to the table (literally). Bill and his MBA(the business world, economics, and news are his forte), Chad and his ridiculous pop-culture and music knowledge make him a genius. I tend to meet the nerd quoto with my book exposure at Barnes & Noble (literature, language, and foreign culture). I'm also the token girl on the team, so I cover all the girly categories. Unfortunately, my team has had to learn the hard way not to trust me with numbers. We were asked "How many tablespoons in a cup?" And of course they looked to the one women...I confidently answered "Three". Only to later discover it was "Sixteen."
Matt is great with sports, movies, and filling in the rest of the gaps! Out of around 20 teams, we on average place 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. However, on rare occasions, we get 4th out of 20 which we beat ourselves up over. Although, considering our team is half the size of the majority of the other teams, its nothing to be asshamed of!
This is pretty much the standard team, on a weekly basis. But occasionally we're accompanied by the Bozeman's and/or Kelley's which leave our team unstopable!
