Tangent Takes A Fall

So Trivial Tangent had placed for three straight weeks.   We had to take a week of because Team Trivia was down for Memorial Day.  

We return seriously ready to continue our streak, but did not do so hot.   I, Wil, messed up on the question of the day that is posted on Facebook.  Sigh.  I was playing around on an answer to a classical music question, which ended up being the correct answer (we went with a different answer) and we serious took a dive on the final question while betting 15 points.  

The final scores were as follows:

1st - Aged & Confused (45)

2nd - Harold's Kumar (37)

3rd - M&M (18)

4th - Luke Warm Soup (13)

5th - Trivial Tangent (9)

THAT'S RIGHT!!!!  We finished with a single digit score.  OMG!  I had a blast though.   Well, on to next week.  

Thanks to Heather, Mindy, Maggie and  Jenny for participating this week.  

ONWARD!!!!!
