Thanks To Boston For A Great Night Of Trivia

A recap of the latest installment in ATL's Bar Trivia series.

Thanks again to everyone who came out to the ATL Trivia night in Boston last Thursday! Over 100 law students gathered in the basement of Clery’s to vie for both honor and the goodies provided by our sponsors from Kaplan Bar Review. We’d advertised the free food and drinks and the free iPad minis and Google Chromecasts, but we also learned that Kaplan was giving away hundreds of dollars of free credit for Kaplan Bar Review courses, with everyone in attendance receiving a nice discount.

And if you’re a law student wondering when we’ll make it to your town, be patient. I know a couple of locations we’re planning to hit in the next couple of months.

So let’s recap our Boston extravaganza and check out some pictures of the action….

As I said, it was a packed house with representation from Harvard, Boston College, Boston University, Massachusetts, New England, Northeastern, Roger Williams, Suffolk, and UMass. Even Georgetown, Gonzaga and, most impressively, Stockholm University got in on the action. This was just the front bit of the room:

The first round of legally themed Jeopardy-style “Before and After” was a bit rough on everybody, but after that, the teams settled in for the “Identify Legal Film by Screencap” and “Boston-area” trivia categories. Was the “Before and After” too hard? I’ll let you decide with a sample. Remember, half of each of these “Before and After” clues result in a legally themed answer.

So that one was Earl Warren Buffett. Too hard? I thought it was fine. The scores disagreed. Oh well.

Finally, we capped the evening by reminding the gathered law students that they all would have been better off going to med school by regaling them with a category about diseases.

In the end, a mere point separated first and second place. Here are your winners, The Tort Magnets, posing with our sponsors from Kaplan, the five iPad minis they won for first place, and the ATL Trivia sign:

Second place secured five Google Chromecasts, and last place earned a round of shots for their effort.
