TROJANS JOKER CHOKER!
April 15, 2022
AFTER A GRUELLING TRAINING SESSION A DEPLETED TRIO OF TROJANS HEADED FOR THE WEEKLY VISIT TO THE NEWLANDS IN TILE HILL TO TAKE PART IN THE QUIZ.
TROJANS HAVE EARNED SOMETHING OF A REPUTATION IN THIS FIELD – IF NOT ON THE BASKETBALL COURT – OF LATE, BUT THE THREE, MARK NEIL AND MIKE, FAILED TO LIVE UP TO RECENT EXPECTATIONS AND FINISHED DOWN THE ORDER IN 12TH PLACE (THERE WERE 15 TEAMS IN CONTENTION!)
THE CHOKER CAME AS EARLY ASTHE FIRST ROUND, WHEN OVER-CONFIDENCE SET THE TONE AND THE JOKER (DOUBLE POINTS) WAS PLAYED. HOWEVER, THE ANSWERS SHOCKED THE THREESOME, FOR SEVERAL WERE INCORRECT AND ONLY A SMALL BONUS WAS RECOUPED.
THIS MEANT THAT THEY WERE ALWAYS FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE AND THEY ENDED WITH 57 POINTS OVERALL AS THE TOP PRIZE WAS TAKED WITH A MASSIVE 75.
AH WELL, TRY AGAIN NEXT WEEK!
