So what Boston coffee shop/tavern did John Adams, James Otis, and Paul Revere meet in to talk about rebelling against the British?

The answer is The Green Tavern, which was used as a meeting place by several secret groups including the Sons of Liberty. The Boston Tea Party was planned there and Paul Revere set out from there to Lexington on his famous midnight ride.

And now you know…

Updates to Tuesday Coffee Trivia.

Sorry, guys. I have been under the weather with some stomach bug. And I was so distracted with stuff that I simply forgot about it until a few minutes ago. I think I will have to re-schedule for tomorrow.

Also, I want to let you guys know that I am going to make a few changes effective immediately.

First of all, I notice that there are always people who get left out because they are not online right at 8:00 when I post the question. It’s not fair for you to miss out just because you check tumblr a few minutes late. Right?

So from now on, I’ve decided to give people 24 hours to answer the trivia question. You’ll have plenty of time to research the answer and send it to me privately. And at 9:00 PM on Wednesday, I will select a winner at random and announce him/her on tumblr.

Sound good?

Another thing I will start to do is post the correct answer to the question when the winner is announced. Just because you don’t want free coffee does not mean you don’t want to know the answers. Right? Thanks for the suggestion, Troeger.

And if any of you have any suggestions and / or comments please let me know. I would like to know what you guys think I can do to make this more fun for everybody!
