The Two Figs and a true underdog story!

If you can dodge The Beast, it really is possible to win a life-changing sum of cash, regardless of how baws your team are in the actual quiz!
The most recent Two Figs quiz truly was a testament to the unpredictable nature of the Sir James Pub Quiz. Two Figs regulars, the Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers, leapt into an early lead, where they remained until the infamous music round reared its ugly head once more. A piss poor 2 points saw them drop down the leader board quicker than Lee Westwood and allowed The Scoobies to grab the lead.
With only the 1 in 3 round to go, 'Real bear hugs are often fatal' trailed by just 2 points. The Scoobies played it safe and scored exactly 0 points with RBHAOF risking it with their recently won biscuits and securing six points and a dramatic, last ditch victory. 

Here are the final standings:

1st - Real Bear Hugs Are Often Fatal (also the funnest team)
2nd - The Scoobies
3rd - Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers
4th - Inglorious Bar Staff (IBS - no prizes for unexpected abbreviations in this quiz chaps)
5th - Snookie (ca$h winners)

Special mention must go to team Snookie who made their quiz debut, scored only 12 points (including -6 in the final round) and still managed to defeat the Beast and stroll off into the sunset with £114 in the back burner.

Have a swatch at some of the snaps
And whilst we're at it, let's have a quick recap of what happened at the previous Two Figs mega quiz...

Only 10 points separated all 6 quiz contenders but it was 'Unexpected Quiz Night' who romped to victory with an impressive 6 points in the final round. Here's how the teams finished:

1st - Unexpected Quiz Night
2nd - Two Pigs in the Two Figs
=3rd - Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers
=3rd - Puns n Roses
4th - The Top Bananas
5th - Murray's Mascots
So...following Snookie's victory, the jackpot has been reset so get your arse down to the Two Figs next Sunday to stake your claim.

See ya then

Which team paraded to victory this week? (waheyyyyy!!!)

Yes indeed, the West End Festival's Mardi Gras Parade (on a Sunday indeed) had finished off a number of interested parties early on but fortunately there were a few enthusiastic stragglers left behind, willing to take on the might of the Sir James Quiz! 
Picture
One member of Team Awesome had been pre-warned of the dangerous quizzing environment that follows the West End Parade. Backup was provided by a couple of agents off of the Matrix
QUIZ WINNERS - Team Awesome lived up to their name and led the quiz from start to finish and were first to try and break through the Play Your Cards Right wall of death. Sadly they failed and The Beast survived, but not for long....
Picture
Nobody leaves empty-handed at a Sir James quiz night. Or sober!
2nd Place and FUNNEST TEAM! - The Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers (West End division) were hoping to land their first Two Figs victory but couldn't cope with the might of Team Awesome. Behind the scenes chat suggested that the buckets of gin they were drinking may have played a part. MMFA were also given the opportunity to take on The Beast but fell at the last card...
Picture
After promising to defeat me in the next quiz, the Rookie Wookies carried out their threat prematurely...the sneaky bastards!
3rd Place and CA$H WINNERS - The Rookie Wookies had a Two Figs debut to remember, despite knowing heehaw about Scottish music. They managed a respectable third but triumphed in the Play Your Cards Right and earned themselves the chance to take on The Beast. The Beast was swiftly sent back whence he came and the Wookies pocketed themselves a tasty £67.

Special mention must go out to the Bar Staff who had worked like trojans all day and were still up for giving the quiz a go. Sadly they only managed Round One and 8 points before shit got all crazy again.

Here's some fun from the fun round...
So after the Rookie Wookies stole the cash, the jackpot has been reset for this Sunday's Scottish TV/Film themed quiz. 

See you all then chaps

Crutch Boy + his mates triumph despite Luke putting a ring on it!

Unfortunately for Luke, nobody mentioned that the dance off had been cancelled after Crutch Boy cited the Disability Discrimination (Scotland) Act 1995
Glasgow's greatest minds had gathered, elsewhere it seemed, as the Two Figs played host to their first ever pub quiz. Nevertheless, a willing and enthusiastic bunch of participants assembled to take part and were treated to (probably) the Two Figs first ever one-sided dance off and a complimentary bowl of nachos.

Nae team was willing to claim the cash jackpot on the first outing, although Flangiva's Linney did give it a right good crack. She was sadly pummeled by The Beast! So next week, it's only a bloody £50+ rollover...nice!

Here are the final standings...
Crutch Boy and his mates (the West End's latest superhero swiped victory in the tie-break)
Quiz in my Pants! - the funnest team
Tie 2nd - The Bee Gees
Tie 2nd - Flangiva
Havelock Honeys
Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers - winners of the inaugural plastic wooden spoon

Have a right good swatch at the teams below...
And here's some fun from the fun round!

Here he is! It's TV's very own Quizmaster Scott now available served hot and in the flesh on Sunday nights down the Byres Road in Two Figs.

And if you are thinking the decor reminds you of The Bungo, then you are onto something as The Two Figs and The Bungo are sisters. Yes, like much of Dundee, they are related. 

The fun begins in Two Figs this Sunday 2nd June from around 8pm - just in time for the start of the West End Festival - FANCY THAT!

And for all the social media whores, here's the Link to the Facebook Event - http://www.facebook.com/events/417714134993248/
