It was great to see some familiar faces and new players at the Thirsty Lion last night. Lot’s of excitement for our fantastic VIDEO quiz, and we had oodles of prizes to give away throughout the course of the evening.
We started our terrifically fun WIDMER FIST OF KNOWLEDGE standings all over again for the month [...]
