On this soon to be rainy night in Upland, fifteen teams were in a fun fun mood-- ready to get their trivia on, enjoy the libations at Rescue, and maybe even win some stickers! 😛
Four teams got a perfect double score after Round One... but after that, the teams quickly spread. B Sharps, Burn her house down, and The Con-Quiz-tadors traded off the top spot, and even going into the final round, those last two teams were tied! Oooo, who shall emerge victorious? Well, it may depend on which heat we're talking about.
Let me break down some facts...
1) The Con-Quiz-tadors won the Drinking round
2) The Con-Quiz-tadors won the top spot (by one point-- ouch)
...and 3) England is not the same as Great Britain
Now, for the #3 spot, There’s no crying in trivia and Irish I were drunk went toe to toe to break the tie, and to win some very cool stickers as their prize.
Fact 4) No one knows the square footage of Turkey.
But playing by Price Is Right rules, Irish I were drunk came out ahead, and took the #3 spot (and the stickers).
Congrats to our three teams, and thanks to ALL our teams for playing!
See you next week!

Seven rounds of questions-- questions that seemed to be challenging in different ways. Is it Ice-T or Iced Tea? Was it the commercial IN Toy Story, or a just a character that appeared in the movie? Why does Texas have so many flippin' counties? Teams battled through these challenges, while also celebrating Alex' near 2500 days working at Rescue!
Congrats to The Con-Quiz-tadors who finally stole the lead back from The B Sharps to take the win (At least The B Sharps took the Drinking Round, so there's that...)
See you all next week!

Another fun night at Rescue Brewing... where a small controversy broke out. Stay tuned for that.
Round One had four teams tied at 12 points each. However, in short order, the pack broke up, and we had There's no crying in trivia, KABAM5, and The Con-Quiz-tadors trading off for the top spot...until The Con-Quiz-tadors grabbed it and wouldn't let go, untimately taking the win! Congrats to them!
Now, the controversy: Are boneless wings ACTUALLY wings? Or are they just chicken nuggets with a different name?
Are they tasty? Sure. Are they easier to eat? Yup. But.... boness wings? Your faithful Quizmaster humbly submits to you that they are NOT. The only specimen that can reasonably be called a boness wing is a traditional wing that has has the wing twisted and slid out, leaving the skin and meat behind. A boneless wing is not that.
*gets off his soapbox*
See you next week!
