NTN Encore Question of June 7th, 2008.
Played at The Squire & Firkin in Etobicoke, Ontario.

Answers:

  1. Ozzy Osbourne
  2. Meatloaf
  3. Mick Jagger
  4. Steven Tyler
  5. Billy Idol

Tonight I'm playing with three boards as ROCKET, LITBOX, and LYNX. I had signed onto a third board and expected LeAnn to play but she was eating so I ran it for this game. Rob COSMO, Sean METLCA, and Phil PLBAAB were playing as well as the only ones all night in this bar.

My game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp...ROCKET...5000/5000...1st/6...my three shar win with METLCA.  
...........LITBOX...5000/5000...1st/6. 
...........LYNX...5000/5000...1st/6...I didn't have to guess anything this round.
OnBeat...ROCKET...12000/14000...1st/6...I go 7 for 9...PLBAAB wins round with 8 for 9.
..........LITBOX...12000/14000...1st/6.
...........LYNX...12000/14000...1st/6...I miss the Frank Sinatra on an American stamp and the Hayley Duff judging
a talent tryout.  If my subway ride had have been 15 minutes longer, I would have got to a Frank Sinatra story in
my Billboard magazine and would have read that news.
Jukebox...ROCKET...18000/20000...1st/6...ROCKET, LITBOX, and METLCA win round with a perfect sweep.
...........LITBOX...18000/20000...1st/8.
...........LYNX...17849/20000...5th/6...the categories were family relations like Father/Mother/Aunt/Uncle/
Brothers/Sisters etc.
Triviaoke...ROCKET...25967/28000...3rd/6...METCLA wins round with a perfect 8000.
...........LITBOX...25976/28000...2nd/6.
...........LYNX...25639/28000...4th/6...I take no -250s this week.

I say right away I don't know this. I know who starred in this but I've never seen the movie. Fortunately my friends are movie fans and they know. I don't think I would have guessed this right on my own.

Correct Answer:....5. Billy Idol

[NTN Extra Fact:...Billy plays himself in the film and helps Adam Sandler win back Drew Barrymore's love.]

I didn't think of it at the time but that's the second Encore in three weeks about Adam Sandler who just happens to be out with another movie this month. Hmmmm....just a coincidence NTN?

I'm right and stay in 2nd place as LITBOX with 38964 points. I finish 62nd overall in North America (one place better than last week). The bar is 18th on the Network Top 20 with a 38734 average. I earn 3000+ points for making this week's standard of 16000. METCLA wins with 39000 and is 1st on this bar's Hall of Fame board. [ntn.com kept us in 18th place out of 1820 bars]

Here's how the rest of the bar did: 
Player	preEncore	Final	Rank	ntn.com rank
METLCA	26000		39000	  62	 164
LITBOX	25976		38964	  63	 169
ROCKET	25967		38950	  64	 170
LYNX	25639		38458	  74	 209
PLBAAB	25533		38299	  79	 225
COSMO	25415		38122	  85	 245
(ntn.com listed 7963 players)

Other games:...I'm visiting so don't know what my Players Plus points are.
