Another very close contest in the quiz night at Fazakerleys Bar last night again. There was just 10 points seperating all six teams and just 2 points between the top four. We had to go to a tie-break to seperate the top two. The full breakdown of the points were:
DandJ 51 points (won the Tie Break question)
Pointless 51 points (2nd in Tie Break)
2+2 50 points
Spiti Muira 49 points
Team Cyclamen 42 points
Brain Dead + 2 41 points
A big thank you to all of you that contin ue to make my nights at Fazakerleys so entertaining.
The real news of the night was concerning the envelope draw which reached 320 Euros in the prize fund.
The lucky raffle winner, clutching her ticket in hand gingerly came forward to choose one of the four remaining envelopes. The crowd drew closer as Mary hesitated over which envelope to pick. A few oohs and ahhhs from the ranks as her hand wavered over the identical, blank envelopes, perhaps hoping to feel a rush of energy from the winning one.
Plucking one out, hands shaking, she nervously opened the envelope to reveal the folded piece of paper inside. More tension as the folded sheet failed to open on the first attempt. The second attempt still failed to reveal the outcome of the draw. Finally on the third attempt at unfolding the small scrap of white paper, it was managed.
Not a sound was heard in Gerani. It was as if time had stopped.
Marys head dropped and time started again for all those at Fazakerleys. A moped rushed past outside drowning out the words that Mary had said aloud. She had to repeat ....
'SORRY - BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME'
This means that next Friday there will be only 3 envelopes left and a prize fund that should reach 350 Euros. Will it be your lucky week next Friday..you have to be in it to win it and also be at Fazakerleys to pick your envelope.
---------A 1 IN 3 CHANCE OF WINNING 350 EUROS FOR THE PRICE OF A 50c RAFFLE TICKET----------
--------------------------------ONLY AT FAZAKERLEYS BAR ON A FRIDAY-------------------------------------------
Hope to see you all there next week.
