Trivial Pursuit (Genus IV) - July 18th, 2009

Trivial Pursut (Genus IV)
Do I really need to describe it? Roll. Move. Answer inane questions. Collect pie pieces. Mmmm...pie.

Our friends Spencer and Kaeli arrived with Trivial Pursuit in hand. After some kvetching on my part, Hilary and I joined them for a couple-v-couple game. Just as we started, John and Carissa joined as a then team, and then Aaron joined as a team unto himself.

Now, Hilary and I are usually pretty good at trivia. We rule at Cash Cab, and are generally proud of all the useless crap we've stuffed inside our heads. This time however, we just couldn't get anything going. We rolled poorly - rarely managing to land on a pie sqare - and when we did we got questions that were either tough or out of our areas of expertise. Meanwhile everyone else was getting questions that we knew.

Sour grapes aside, I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly this game went - Aaron and John/Carissa both filled up their pieces pretty quickly and John and Carissa pulled out a victory.

John/Carissa: Winners!
Aaron: 6 pie pieces
Spencer/Kaeli - 3 pie pieces
Chris/Hilary 0 pie pieces

Game time: 60 minutes
