Quiz Night

17 May 2006

On the weekend my husband and I went to a Quiz Night fundraiser for a local scuba diving club.

I was really excited about it! My husband and I used to be quite active in the club, my brother-in-law was the organiser, we knew heaps of other people going, and it was for a good cause.

I had SO much fun! It was held at the UWA tavern and about 150 people turned up. The crowd was a colourful mix of drunken students, rowdy engineers, brainy marine biologists, hardcore quiz night freaks, miscellaneous not-so-smart people, and a Quiz Mistress dressed in leather bondage gear.

It was all pretty laid back and casual, but very well organised. There were the usual kind of quiz questions from different categories, brain-hurting word-logic puzzles, drinking games, team games etc. There were heaps of cool prizes too.

I did really well with all the brain-hurting puzzles *beams*. But spelling the name of the Iranian President? Er not so well. In the end I think our table came 6th (out of 16).

I also won the Mr Squiggle drawing competition and scored myself a Whale Watching Eco-Adventure - how cool is that!?!. I also walked away with a belly full of beer, pizza, laughs, and a couple of free stubby holders. And one is always happy with free stubby holders.
