Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Saying Goodbye to NTN/Buzztime at Donovan's


Several of us got together yesterday at Donovan's Reef in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, to see the NTN trivia game out in style. We were in the Top Twenty the seven games Liz and I were there (the last four all in the Top Ten).

Barb and Lance put out three pizzas for the NTN players which were also eaten by the other regulars who don't play NTN. We even got Jeff to leave his "bidness" over at the corner table. He played NTN more than anyone else, almost every day, until he got the laptop and started spending time on his food and e-Bay businesses. We usually averaged once a week at Donovan's.

We even saw the Cubs win a completely unimportant game against the Brewers. The two teams are battling it out for last place. And, it being Talk Like a Pirate Day, there was a lot of pirate talk. Captain Jack Sparrow would have been so proud.

Oh well, all things pass. This is just one more. Right now, I am thinking of letting my two NTN players, Parrot and Whodah, just fade off into the distance when NTN drops Donovan's, which we think will be this Sunday. Surprisingly, NTN sure didn't make much of an effort to keep Donovan's as a client.
