Coaches, once again you surprised me with your awesome. Prior to quiz we had some auditions for our next QM, but since they won't ever be as good as Kent and certainly not ever good as me, why bother talking about them?
Along with the hopefuls, Kent and I weren't the only quizzers in attendance. Sitting hidden amongst you were five other Quizmasters from Indiana, Utah, Washington and here. THEY WERE SPYING ON YOU AND JUDGING YOU. I'd probably do the same.
Tonight we pondered things that happened recently, danced some asses off, forced you to remember who David Spade was, rammed things, learned what's in crack, that juvenile jokes about pot are never not funny, and that some mommas be crazy.
In the end, after all was said and done, and after some jumps in the scores all night long, we found our winners. But first, a special congrats to Lynette on her recent nuptial. MAKE LIKE A BILLION BABIES. A BILLION.

Another awesome night of quiz at Coaches yesterday. Sure, I say that every week but we really did have an awesome night. I had a blast. Why? I'll tell you.
We started with a round dedicated the awesome and now sadly defunct show Cash Cab. If you haven't seen Cash Cab try to catch it before it's gone. Not only do you get an awesome game show (not as awesome as me, mind you), but you get to laugh at stupid drunks who don't know crap. Kinda like how we do at quiz.
Such as during our music round. Never Gonna Give It Up by Rick Astley? No. It's not a song about abstinence. However, if you have this in your make out playlist you'll never get past second base. Sorry Ricky, it's a great song but it won't help anyone get laid. Ever. Unlike REO Mother Effin' Speedwagon, which totally will. And the Temptations. Papa Was a Rolling Stone is like one of the best ever.
As for the best television shows, we realized that yeah, most of network television watching America has horrible taste. Hey, I liked Home Improvement too, but I was also like what? 10. 14? Yeah... at least in a list of horrible dreck like American Idol, CSI, and Survivor there were periods when people did watch good things like Cheers, Seinfeld and E.R.
After a round on searching for answers and identify ships (sorry, S.S. Good E'Nuff wasn't the name of the boat in the Goonies), we moved onto our EGOT round. I don't remember anything other than saying how I'd like Emmy Rossum to touch me. That still holds true in this morning's much more sober state. Emmy, I'm here. Get back to me.
After a quick Rube Goldberg video round and our final random round (with some heckler smack-down inbetween), we still weren't ready to find our winners just yet. We had to have a sudden death round between two teams so full of collective brain juices that I thought I was just going to have a flip a coin to determine the winners. Luckily it didn't come to that. Behold your winners:

Hey there nerds, quizlings, browncoats, Whedonerds and what nots. What an awesome quiz we had at Coaches last night. We filled the bar with only the best of the geeky world. And we had a quiz to appease that sector of nerd, our Masters of the Whedonverse Quiz.
Now, because not all of the Geeks Who Drink empire has done the Whedon quiz yet I'm embargoed from discussing any of the specifics of the quiz. What can I say? Whatever synonyms for awesome are in the thesaurus. And that the quiz did contain questions that only the most hardcore of fans can handle.
I've got to hand it to you Whedon quizzers. Doing well on the Whedonverse quiz isn't like our other themed quizzes. You didn't need to be a superfan of one show or movie. You had to be a superfan of several shows and films. That's hardcore, folks. *tip of the hat to you*
Thanks to everyone for coming out tonight and making it awesome. Come back and see me every week for our regular Thursday night quizzes at Coaches. And special thanks to QM Kent for helping out the whole night.
Most of the evening it was pretty close and remained that way for our top teams up until the end. And here, winning for the second year in a row, your Masters of the Whedonverse:
