Chiang Mai Quiz Update - Finless Flounders Flail & Flummox Pigs


A night of high drama and the Tuskers pub quiz night this week and a new team entered the fray. The Finless Flounders caused an immediate stir by poaching Spider Pigs star player Naomi at the start. The controversial defection left the Pigs in disarray and put them under immediate pressure in trying to hold on to their title. At half time the Pigs trailed in third place while the Flounders were flouncing at the top of the tree.
The much vaunted Underdogs were also in contention and it surely cannot be long before they pick up a title. Meanwhile the LBW were struggling with just 3 members. This was rectified at half time as a swarm of people arrived to increase their numbers by a factor of 4. It looked as if they might mount a strong second half challenge but arguments and uncertainty marred their chances of making an impact on the scoreboard.
Playing to their strenght of music and movies the Pigs rallied hard in Rounds 4 & 5 to regain the lead. Confidence was high but a tight general knowledge round saw the Flounders narrowly take the tape. Just one and a half point separated the top 3 teams.
Congratulations to the Flounders on a win in their maiden appearance.
If you would like to take part bring yourself or even better a team to the Tuskers Chiang Mai Pub Quiz on Monday nights from 8pm. It's not rocket science but it is good fun.
