live free or die wicked hahd

trying to represent for the HGS, i attended another trivia night in Rochester, NH, at the 103 restuarant. The red sox were on the tv and I was sucking down Mountain Dew - pretty much in my comfort zone. long story short, we came in second. our team name was "the d-20s" - bonus points if you can guess what insanely geeky reference we were going for there. It was me, someone who I'll call the scourge and someone else i'll call the "kid" since he was not yet of drinking age. it's the kind of pub quiz where most of the questions are easy, so if you get the one hard one wrong, you're F'd. So, we got a few of those wrong and lost first place by about 5 points to the Rat Bastards, a weekly favorite to win, a team scourge and i were on two weeks ago, but we defected.

i regret at least 2 answers.
1. it's a 5-minute majore in hockey, not 2 or 4. I should know that, but major penalties are rare.
2. i mixed up coral and limestone. coral is in fact not a rock, but is a living thing. stupid coral.

tomorrow night we might go to trivia in dover, same host, so same set up. i am ambivalent about it.
