Trivia American Style

Just a quick reminder that this Thursday July 7th (tomorrow night) will be All American Trivia Night at Keegan's Irish Pub & Restaurant. All the questions will revolve around the greatest nation on God's green earth, there will be drink specials that honor our country, and rumor has it that pub manager and Thursday night MC Marty "Huey" Newton will be dressed as Uncle Sam. Or was it Betsy Ross?

Anyway, I say it's high time that Keegan's gave a little something back to the country. I've had enough of the Euro-centric nature of the Thursday quiz questions. It's not surprising given that Terry Keegan is a noted Francophile, but Marty's arrogant, haute couture attitude and constant Satre references are getting tiresome. When he dismissively referred to us as "bien peasants" last week, it really was the last straw.

Of course, the real objective of All American Trivia Night is to raise money for Soldiers' Angels. Reps from the great organization will be on hand to collect donations and a portion of the drink specials will go directly to support the group's efforts to provide aid and comfort to troops overseas.

If you can't make it to Keegan's, you can donate directly or adopt a soldier at Soldiers' Angels.
