Let's Play Trivia!

As Chad notes, tonight is the big trivia contest at Keegan's, a benefit for Soldiers' Angels.

There is, by the way, room for one more team; contact Chad (the link is in the story linked above).

Chad also handicaps the nine teams currently scheduled; he somewhat self-servingly makes the Fraters' team 12-1 dogs, the better to frame a comeback from the humiliation of two years ago (when Team Fraters was beaten not only by the winners (Atomizer's mom, Mike Nelson's wife, et al) and the runners-up (Captain Ed, AM1280's Chumley Wonderbar and Kevin Cash and I) and team Hewitt (with Medved, Lileks, the Crazy Uke and Hewitt), but if memory serves were even blanked by the likes of David Strom, Pink Monkeybird, Kevin Ecker, and even Kevin McKay, dyspeptic leftyblogger.

Still, making themselves 12-1 dogs - the better to frame an upset - is self-serving; the Fraters have won a slew of trivia challenges. No, the real shift in odds is with Ed and my team; Ed's health problems and my own personal, er, turmoil put our odds around 20-1. Yeah, that's it.

If we win, it'll be a yuuuuuuuuuuuge upset.

Anyway, hope you can show up. If you start a team ($25/participant contribution to Soldiers' Angels), good; otherwise, just come on down, pony up for the Angels, and join us for a great time!
