VFW: The Last Shall Be First

As one of my high school teachers once told me, it's not the size of the fight in the dog, it's the size of the trivia players. Frank and Dave scored a major come from behind victory, leaping from ninth to first in the last round. In fact, all the early round leaders crashed and burned. The Young and the Listless, languishing in eighth, charged in the end to take third, while the Manolo wearing Nix Lix took second. We're Here for the Beer, who had been in second, plummeted to seventh. But at least they got to pick a theme: Howdy Dowdy. King Kirk declared that all Trashbag prizes should be able to be eaten at the VFW and demanded ice cream for his cones. Paul, meanwhile, demanded easy-to-read picture sheets.
