Bananas in Pyjamas

So this probably doesn't really count as an adventure, but last night certaintly felt like one.  Bill's girlfriend Sarah is in town for the week from Cambridge so I met up with them, Judy and Paul at this Irish bar called the Dublin Inn which is in the Altstadt near the Weihnachtsmarkt.  Bill chose the Dublin Inn because apparently it has an English pub quiz on Thursday nights--sounds great, right?  Turns out that a pub quiz to the English is what most American bars simply advertise as trivia night.  The only difference this time, was that the lady who read out the questions had a thick Irish accent and was most likely incredibly drunk.

Seriously.  Half of her questions didn't really make sense from the start and the other half were jumbled up so much by her inability to speak that they were rendered pretty much intelligible  Ok, it couldn't have been that bad because we ended up, somehow, getting fourth place (which we had to go ask about since we were the only team whose final score wasn't read out loud).  But really, drunk Irish people are funny though, and we had a great time mostly because we were guessing at not only the answers but the questions as well.

One memorable example, she asked for the four main actors/actresses from Gone with the Wind which as I proud Southerner I quickly figured out with Bill's girlfriend Sarah.  Five minutes later she said she changed her mind and wanted the four main characters from the movie--umm, ok.  Then when she read the answers she only said two (so we had no idea about the other half).  Whatever crazy, drunk Irish pub quiz question reader.
