Fame and Glory is ours.
Last night Susan and I won our neighborhood’s Seinfeld trivia contest – which was temporarily renamed “Del Boca Vista” for the festivities.
We entered our team’s name as “Crazy Joe Davola and Miss Rhode Island”. I was Crazy Joe. To win, we would have to beat the odds-on favorites, a Long Island couple calling themselves, “The Moops” and a dark horse sleeper couple from New Jersey calling themselves, “The Spare Squares”. Susan plays pickleball with the woman on “Serenity Now” and I once had words with the pain in the asses from the “Take the Pen” squad. All in all, there were 12 teams.
The Crazy Joe’s put on a Seinfeld clinic not seen since Morty was impeached. We correctly answered 49 out of 50, missing only “what Seinfeld prop is in the Smithsonian”. To know the answer to that one required watching something other than Seinfeld.
The prize for first place was a Black and White cookie a delicious Chocolate Babka (albeit, not from Schnitzer’s) and the peace of mind knowing your late twenties had not been frittered away.
The losers, who were sore, have already challenged me to a “Soprano’s” trivia night. Please, fuhgedaboutit !!
Congratulations to my wife, Miss Rhode Island. Want to go to Mendy’s ?
