QUIZ RECAP

This week at trivia I was inspired by a young boy named Hayden. Midway through the night, amidst the intense competition that is always present at Brouwerji West, I made an announcement that King Trivia is now hiring new quizmasters. Hayden, who is probably no more than 12 years old, came up to me after the announcement and eagerly asked if he could be a quizmaster. I didn't have the heart to tell him no directly, so I offered him a chance to try announcing one question over the mic. He did such a great job and had so much fun that it made me realize how lucky I am to do what I do. Maybe Hayden was an inspiration to the teams competing too because I have never seen so many successful double or nothings as this week. In the end Pacific Coast Dog did the most double or nothings and stole the victory. Their turning point was appropriately a round all about dogs! In second place this week was Hey You, Beer Me who won a tie breaker for second, and in third was Where's the Whisky, who lost the tie breaker. No doubt, the competition was thrilling, but my real takeaway from this week was the amazing community that trivia can create, and the joy it brings to people like Hayden.
