[6-22-2011] – Over Beers
Every wednesday night I get together with a group of friends for a trivia night at a local bar. It’s great fun and the perfect way to break up the mundane nature of the work week. We have been on a recent hot streak of late, winning four weeks in a row. Hopefully we can keep the streak alive as it really helps keep the tab down, as each victory knocks 35 dollars off the bill.
This image was taken at a post-trivia celebration at Shorty’s, a Coney Island themed bar and pinball arcade in the Belltown neighborhood of Seattle. The glare on the table makes it a bit hard to tell, but the table is an old converted pinball machine. If I remember correctly the one we where sitting at was a USA vs. Canada hockey theme.
