QUIZZO!

 

ALA Philadelphia Chapter Members and

Sponsoring Vendors joined forces:

Members of the Philadelphia Chapter of the ALA and Sponsoring Vendors attended the ultimate trivia event last night Quizzo!

There were 10 groups of people - about 8 people to a group. The Quizzo MC asked us the most difficult questions about things no one should know. Our group was able to accurately answer:

Year duct tape was invented. 1942 If we were asked to list the uses of duct tape, we would still be at Tir Na Nog.

The name of President Clinton's cat. We didn't know the dog's name. Steve Hatch and I won baseball hats for the most smart alec responses.    I thought his dog was named Hillary and Steve thought the cat was named Monica. Dog - Buddy. Cat - Socks.

Jason knew the 8 Nintendo games and the 4 remaining NHL teams still battling for the Stanley Cup. We are concerned about Jason.

Every team thought that their team named more movies and their sequels than any other team.

Many of our vendors graciously donated prizes for the winners. They were very generous gifts including dinner at the Four Seasons (when am I going?); Phillies tickets, American Express gift certificates - just to name a few.

The first place winners must have a lot of time on their hands to correctly answer some of these questions. Such as:

How old is George Clooney? Mary Zove didn't care. He's handsome - most of us just stop there. By the way, he's 46.

How old is Kelly Clarkson? Someone had to tell me who she was. 26 How many states border the Great Lakes. 7 What two states were the stomping grounds for the Hatfield-McCoy feud? Kentucky & West Virginia

Everyone left learning something. I think Quizzo could qualify as an educational event.

Stay tuned for information about the ALA Legal Expo. We are planning to hold this event in July this year.
