QUIZ RECAP

Did I think Bar Charlie's 2nd King Trivia night could complete to the first? Last week we had 7 inaugural teams, and a thrilling come-from-behind finish! I arrived hoping for at least that much competition and excitement and what happened?! Week 2 we had NINE teams in the mix! Pretty much a full house, with only a few single seats here and there. Bar Charlie is the place to be Tuesday nights at 7pm! Round one started with "Team 5-1-0" jumping out to an early lead, successfully doubling round 3, and powering to a strong 9-point lead through the first 6 rounds, making it look like a runaway victory. But wait...last week, Team 5-1-0 was overtaken at the last moment and forced to settle for 2nd prize. Would that happen again? With a 9 point lead with just one round to go? "Toad from Mario Kart" wasn't giving up, staying within 8-9 points throughout the game, sitting in 2nd place. After those two, there was a gap back to a wild race for 3rd prize, back and forth between "Puerto-Rick-O Wombat", "Dad Bods & Mom Jeans", & "Charcuterie Broads". But Dads & Moms had to cut out to another prearranged gathering, leaving just the two other teams battling for 3rd. Not far behind, potentially within reach with a final round double-down, were "Astros", "Yahoo Answers", "The Kentucky Maids" and "Team Pup n Suds" (who joined in round 2, but still made it close in the end). In the end, Puerto-Rick-O Wombat held off Charcuterie Broads for 3rd, and, unbelievably, Team 5-1-0 was snakebit for a second week in a row...having to settle for 2nd prize after a stunning come-from-behind final round perfect score double-down by Toad from Mario Kart! Final score, 58-57!! Wow! What will next week bring? Don't be late!
