John Adams noted in his diary that the second of July "will be celebrated, by succeeding generations, as the great anniversary festival." He then wrote in the margin, "and on July 5th, everyone should play King Trivia at The Oaks Tavern. It's gonna be wicked awesome!" Tonight, we fulfilled our patriotic duty!

Kim Makes Pizzas. She Really Does overcame a combined Guess Who? and Matching Round score of -1 to win first place. Genetics, the evening's runners-up, were one of only two teams to correctly decipher the Find the Connection Round. Ten points in the Matching Round propelled The Grassy Knoll Cowards into third place.

The Drinking Round was won by Quiz-Knows who correctly guessed that Stormy Spaniels would be a great name for the former president's pet.

Join us again next week because, as John Quincy Adams said, "Do what my dad says or he'll make you grow huge sideburns. They're so itchy!"
