The first round was middling, but all the teams had a nice little warm up with some interesting generalizations. Round 2, things began to heat up as the beat dropped, as team Jeff displayed knowledge encyclopaedic about the photogenic rap groups. Round 3 gained us oft-regulars this time under the flag of "whoopsie do, although a misplaced double-down intended to make up for lost time kept them holding the same amount of points as the first two rounds they weren't there for...
Round four was thrilling for the quizmaster, as only two teams were able to guess correctly, and even then on the final clue.
During the Thrilling Paper airplane drinking round, while Jeff was the clear winner, gliding out first and farthest, Biden's Besos soared high, maybe too high and, like Icarus, were defeated by their own enthusiasm, lodging in the decor as a permanent warning and inspiration to us all (Pictured) In a satisfying show of rigour and confidence, while most teams scored low in round four, the only team to brave and succeed the double-down, was Whoopsie Do, and in doing so, adding to their two points, effectively undecupled their score!
Undecuple:
--v.t. & v.i. ?pled, ?pling To multiply by eleven; make or become eleven times as large.
It was amazing, and we got to learn a new word.
Round six was middling at best for everyone but Flying Deuces, who - scoring a double- soared beyond the mathematical reach of almost every team going into the nigh unpossible round 7, where divine intervention appeared for no one.

Teams turned out not just for the beer, but pint after pint of sudsy trivia goodness!
Round 1 was a nice warm up, but round 2 was where the real magic was made as teams busted out their knowledge of famous Jacksons. In round 3 many struggled finding the right endINGs for their answers, but Terri and the Boys began to threaten the leaders. Regal illegal played it conservative in round 4, and everyone was caught by surprise by Flying Teip, with double doubles in rounds 5 and 6, rocketing them into a lead they would maintain to the final minutes.

As the rain debated weather (sic. pun, bro) or not it would like to shimmy its way into the Santa Clarita Valley, The Dudes' Brewing Company was determined to pour the beer and make up for the indecision. Sipping their pints, teams emerged into the night of trivia with a stellar round, 50% of teams tying the first round, but Flying Deuces hitting round two with double down so hard, you could feel it across town center drive. The top spot for round three was claimed by Austin? Tada!, who used a double down to effectively double their score-to-round. It was a pretty even spread for rounds 4 and 5, with points all over the ladder. Thits on your Knob Dominated round 6, and likely could have placed in the top slots had they not bowed out early, leaving Boom Shakalaka with two doubles in a row a the end of the game to seize first, followed by Flying Deuces and Austin? Tada! (And more)
