Greene Turtle Trivia Night


Tonight everyone had a lot of fun at Greene Turtle “Trivia Night”. They arrived at 6:30 and were promptly seated in the wrong part of the restaurant, but there was plenty of time to move to a proper table in the bar area, since the 6:30 trivia apparently doesn’t start until 7:00 anyhow. Pete and Sam blew away the competition, with some help also from Mom and Dad. They got nearly every question correct, and built up a 63-55 lead by the time the final question came around. The only boring part was listening to all of the songs in between the questions. Dad asked the trivia girl at one point if she could play 21 Pilots and she asked “What group sings that song?” Sigh. 

Here are the answers to all of the questions, with the ones they got incorrect in bold: “or best offer”, Johnny Cash, Mouse, Diana DeGarmo, Gin Blossoms, Christian Laettner (+1 bonus point), Press Your Luck, Indiana Bones and the Temple of Groom, Kate Upton, Pearl Harbor, Lincoln Assassination, Oklahoma City Bombing, Wright Brothers, Schwartz, Mexico & Canada, Rhode Island, November, FDR, mass, Belgium, Dan Rather, Tulsa, Maroon 5, The Bangles, The Moody Blues, The Cure, Elton John. And Pete did a great job driving home from the restaurant. Dad helped Sam plow through his Math and English homework, since they didn’t get home until after 9:00pm.
