Sock Pants
As people who are sort of from Chicago, we were excited to see actual real snow last night by the lakes instead of the usual sideways rain and endless night. 41 teams worth of people decided to abandon their personal safety and brave the winter storm, for which we are both deeply grateful and - as your Resident Old People - ready to scold you for.
You winter warriors showed off that you knew at least two European rail companies, at least one of the 22 named cats in Cats, and demonstrated your willingness to fight a large cat to the death. We also got some truly horrific answers for our question about ‘baby dipping’ (barnedåb), so uh, thanks for those.
The Quizzards had an absolute ripper of a game, stacking up 77 points and five glasses of fancy bubbles in first place. We’re fairly certain the Østerbros now can recite all of the draft beers on tap at the bar from memory with back-to-back second place showings. The Futurologists in third took their beers out into the winter blast, presumably before shredding the gnar at 23.00 at night.
Our buddies at Søhesten and CPH:DOX gave us a pile of extra prizes this week, with a pack of five tickets going to kayak-knowers Trist ‘An’ Pissed, an average amount of alcohol going to average team Kong Quiztians, and a pair of Danish Mystery Liquid doses to the good sports Gast in last place.
