Something about a presidential election gets me all sentimental.  A log crackling peacefully on the fire, my dad shouting at the T.V., my mother in tears over exit polls – gives me a bad case of the warm fuzzies.

A completely new experience, on the other hand, is Pub Quiz: Election Day. So what if those of us at Parkway Station were a couple of days late on the festivities?  Much like that log on the fire, it’s the thought that counts.   For something.

Tonight’s quiz was way more exciting the NBC was this Tuesday.  Mostly because Brian Williams wasn’t there to check the results, so I got to announce everything! I’ve never felt so involved with the community! And with three ferocious teams, it was like a real three party system!

Thursday night’s game was close throughout - until the devastating handout round!  Who knows when other states have their caucuses?  It was good luck for the Beer Whores though, who scored well above the other teams. 

The game really came down to the final round.  What party spurred Thomas Jefferson into action? All three teams had different answers – Whigs, Federalists or Tories?  The Beer Whores answered Federalist, and so took their first win for quite some time.
