Don't Question Me

Once Liz got home, we planned on going to Gladstone Pizza just across the way. We brought along...

Trivial Pursuit 2+ players
Sometimes you just want to go to a restaurant with you friends and just plow through a series of trivia questions. This happened a ways back when Emily and Chuck were in town. We had to purchase Trivial Pursuit first. We wanted to get a newer version so we stopped buy Target. They had none. We then went to Toys R' Us and they only had a gimmicky version of the game. We called a few places too, but no luck. We ate our food questionless. My parents came to visit a few months later and remedied the problem by giving us the new Master Edition as a present. We played while drinking wine, eating cheese, and listening to some folk band at a winery outside of town. Good times. I eventually stopped into a Goodwill and added the cards from Genus 5 to the box. We rarely pull this out since bar trivia has become so popular lately. Some better than others. It is still nice to have when you want to go at you own pace and have your choice of foods.
For our game, we made it player's choice on each question as to what deck got read from. Most of the categories were the same, but a few were different which allowed for a squeak of strategic play. I had a giant lead which was quickly lost. I just couldn't pass the history category when I needed to. We only played to a complete pie since we didn't want to overstay our welcome.

Tally: 75/162  Bonus: 21/50
