QUIZ RECAP

Wed Aug 6 2025

An intimate and mighty crowd assembled here at Barney’s Beanery tonight. After Round 1 multiple teams were left tied for 5th with every single team scoring - a 1st for this Quiz Master. I think my IQ jumped up a few points just by being around ‘em all.

 

For our Drinking Round tonight, Mercury Retrograde fried my brain and I forgot what it is we even do for a Drinking Round! No worries though when our players are such smart cookies. To help me out, teams gave me their best suggestions for future drinking rounds they would like to play - most creative answer wins a free pitcher of beer (and the chance to see their suggestion played in a future game)! Team “Um…I Can’t Say This” ending up nabbing the win with a wonderful game suggestion on “who has the most unread emails?”

 

The last few rounds were WILD! Teams doubling and nothing-ing; dropping in and out of the Top 3 - they were out for blood beer! Ultimately, Team “Lemon It’s Wednesday” pulled ahead from behind to take the win!
