Yesterday, Elizabeth and I participated in the 11th annual Cy's House of Trivia event at Hilton Coliseum.  I believe that this was the fifth year that I have gone to the event (every year since 2012, except for last year).  Sara & Mike Kazlauskas drove over from Chicago to join us for the event.  The rest of our table was made up by Tim & Lydia Nevins, Kyle Perkins, and Ryan Butler.

The trivia seemed to be pretty difficult (like usual).  There was a "6th grade math" round that was hard, but thankfully we had Sara on our team for that.  I only helped with a few questions all night really, but I was proud that I remembered the Iowa motto when no one else on the table could (Our liberties we prize, and our rights we will maintain).

The two most notable "Cyclone celebrities" that sat at our table were head women's basketball coach Bill Fennelly and "Voice of the Cyclones" John Walters.  Our team name for the event was "Disciples of 3sus".  This was an attempt to lure Naz Long to our table, which did not work.  We did track him down over the course of the night for a photo though :)  I think that our team ended up finishing around 30th place (out of about 100 tables).
