Irish Trivia Pub Quiz Question
Last night at Pub Trivia at The Brick in downtown Kansas City, Missouri there was an Irish question. In three years at that Pub Quiz I can’t remember another Irish question - though I’m sure there must have been some.
Being Irish you hope for such moments because they could be your moment of glory for the taking, and go a small way to compensate for how little you know about the Royals or something called MST3K. Actually I’m being unfair, there was a whole round of questions last night - and not for the first time - on John Cusack.
But anyway last night’s question was to name the prison in Northern Ireland that was the home of the Dirty Protest and closed in 2000. There are three names by which the prison is known and any of them would have been acceptable to the quiz organizers.
The answer I wish I’d thought of, that was proffered by the team receiving the question was, Brigadoon.
