granite state trivia: another lousy tee shirt

Estranged from the other HGS, I participated in pub trivia at the 103 restaurant in Rochester, NH this past Tuesday. I was picking up the slack on a team that has regularly placed in the top 3 (according to team leader, MFS). Our team was comprised of four NH Eye-talians. We took an early lead and pretty much kept that until the end. The questions were fairly easy, and seemed to speak to each of our strengths. Teamwork, as we have stated, is key.

The prizes were hats and tee-shirts from beer companies. Oddly, I had to go all the way to NH to get a miller lite hat. It says "Ireland" on the brim. Take a moment and consider the juxtaposition of these three details: a Miller-Lite Hat, that is adorned with the Irish flag and a shamrock, won in New Hampshire. I wore it home.
