The team above at City Tap House had the team name Johnny Depp Ain’t Got S*** on Michael Bolton. Incredibly, in the 4th round of this week’s quiz, there was a question, “In 1983, Laura Branigan had a hit with this song How Am I Supposed to Live W/o You? Who had a hit with that same song in 1989?” The correct answer was Michael Bolton. They got it wrong.

Question of the Week
On May 10th, 1849, fans of American actor Edwin Forrest stormed this Opera House, where rival British actor William MacReady was performing Macbeth. The rioters attempted to set fire to the theater, at which point the state militia showed up and began firing into the crowd. When the dust settled, more than 20 people were killed and over 100 injured. What was the name of the Opera House where this famous riot took place?
