On our second Trivia Night at Josie Wood's, we had six teams come out and enjoy the festivities. We had a small but enthusiastic crowd,and hopefully this will build into a successful night the way Tuesday night at Professor Thom's has become.
The Team of What's The Red Sox/Phillies Score? (which featured my friend Dave, a huge Phillies fan) wound up the winners, with 44 points. The second place team was Honey On My Nuts (which also won for Best Team Name) finished with 39 points, and Mortal Wombat, last week's winners, wound up with 35 points.
I want to thank all of you who came out on Wednesday night, and I hope to see more of you as the weeks progress.
