QUIZ RECAP

One hundred degree weather couldn’t keep our teams away as dozens of folks flooded the barrel-shaped haven of Idle Hour for the best show in town: King Trivia! 30 teams arrived for a fierce competition, and they were not disappointed. 

We started off with a first for the Idle Hour crowd. In Round One, NOBODY risked a double! We have 5 teams knock it out with perfect scores, but couldn’t drum up the courage to risk it for the biscuit. 

In Round Two, perhaps due to the public shaming this QM delivered, several teams took the plunge and suddenly we had a real game on our hands. Quiz Kid Donnie Smith and Algorithm and Blues took the top spots, but with most of the board right behind them. 

Round Three proved another challenge, but Algorithm and Blues used the confusion to leap ahead, taking the top spot. Shortly after, Half the Herd crept into second with Martha Meatballs in third. 

Our Drinking Round asked the teams to come up with trivia for one of our greatest folk heros: Paul Bunyan! After a quick tie breaker, F45ers earned a free round!

Our leaderboard stayed true all the way through Round 5! But then…UPSET!

Half the Herd jumped into the top spot, followed by Diana Spencer’s Gifts, and a tied Algorithm and Blues and Quiz Lightyear. What could happen next? ANOTHER UPSET!

After the final round, Spider-Friendz took third, Little Miss Nadine (birthday girl) took second, and Half the Herd leapfrogged into first. 

Come back every Tuesday at 8pm for more King Trivia action.
