Trivia bowl season has started up again, which means I’ll be defending my title from last year. My favorite question from last night: “Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen lost what in 1984?” His arm, of course. His left arm (although I got no bonus points for that telling detail). I had to picture the “Pour Some Sugar On Me” video to figure out the whole left/right thing.
Marybeth Reed’s dream: “I was at a Deaf Leppard [sic] concert with my friend Jenn and everybody was missing an arm but the drummer.”
You nerd.
