On the evening of Monday the 5^th of June, 19 teams comprised of primed and organized pub quiz veterans descended upon the iconic Harrington’s Bar and Grill for the BABC Young Professional’s Great British-American Pub quiz!

As suggested by the title, the 7 rounds of the quiz focused on topics that attendees from either side of the pond would be familiar. These included:

• Beer
• Celebrities
• Who said what?
• Business
• Film
• Music
• Rugby

The harsh but fair Quiz Masters who guided the often unruly, but mostly amicable teams through the night were Sam Powell and Finn Western. They did an excellent job at keeping the crowd entertained, while fending off unfounded complaints and frequent requests for extra points. They were assisted by Jo Healey and Beth Taggart of the BABC, and together the foursome was able to hold the quiz together until its epic conclusion.

Congratulations to the two teams from Kiosk, who stole the show with a 1^st and 2^nd podium placement, followed by a knowledgeable team from Squire Patton Boggs in a respectable 3^rd.

Our sincere thanks go out to all who attended, and of course the incredibly kind sponsors of the evening: NCCGroup for their generous contribution to the bar tab, HSBC and Giants Enterprises for their 1^st place prize donation, Osbourne Clarke for the 2^nd place prize, the BABC for 3^rd place prizes, and of course Harrington’s Bar & Grill – you all added a wonderful flair to the event and we greatly appreciate your support.

We trust that all those who attended are now focused on study for the next BABC Young Professionals Pub Quiz – We are already looking forward to it!
