YLC MINTER ELLISON RUDD WATTS QUIZ NIGHT
The battle of Anzac Eve On Anzac Eve 2012, 150 young professionals packed into Dockside ready to battle over who would be crowned the “Young Lawyers’ Committee Quiz Night Champions 2012”.
T
he night began like any classy affair — with small talk, pinot noir and olives. A few beers and spring rolls later, the Quiz Master extraordinaire Michael Dobson had punters participating in push up competitions, providing novelty answers, singing along with Taylor Swift, and even had one young-lawyer-turned-composer performing a love ballad.
Teams were tested on their knowledge of French politics, geography, quality 90s music, the Crafar farms and other trivia. With the leaders’ board tied up entering the final round, it was Fo Quizzle my Nizzle’s knowledge of Victoria’s Secret model, Gisele Bündchen, that surged the fanatical team to victory. Al-Q‘uiz’eda — Sleeper Cell (who obviously missed that lecture at law school) finished a commendable second. Thank you to all the teams which so eagerly participated throughout the evening. A special thanks to the Palmy Army (Manawatu Young Lawyers), representatives from MASterMind (MAS), and Best of the Branch (the New Zealand Law Society) for attending. YLC would like to make a further thank you to the Quiz evening’s sponsor Minter Ellison Rudd Watts. And finally, to all the businesses who supported the evening by providing a magical array of prizes including Dockside, DLA Phillips Fox, Hell Pizza, Reading Cinemas, Subway, Les Mills, Habitual Fix, Pandoro, Rahzoo, Mojo, Paramount Cinemas, the Body Shop and Kirkcaldie & Stains — thank you. P.S. For all the young keen quiz beans, due to the overwhelming popularity of the quiz night, we will be back for another round in late 2012!
