The 2023 LaoisToday QuizCast came to a conclusion in the Square Bar in Portlaoise on Friday night when the four semi-finalists – Brian Hogan, Murt Norton, Colin Delaney and Jack Scully – battled it for supremacy in front of a live audience.
With a full house and a cracking atmosphere, quizmaster Mark Comerford put the contestants through their paces.
And though there was a high standard of questions, there was also a very high standard of answers with both semi-finals and final being well contested affairs.
The final was only decided with the very last question. And as well as a thrilling decider, we also had an entertaining curtain raiser – where Team Alan did battle with Team Steven in the ‘Senior B’.
Team Alan was comprised of LaoisToday’s Alan Hartnett as well as Timahoe father and son duo Pauric and Liam ‘Sheriff’ Ramsbottom while Steven Miller from LaoisToday was joined by Courtwood’s Mick Hogan and Portarlington’s Darren Bracken.
