QUIZ RECAP

It was another great night of Trivia at Coles Bar on Elmwood in Buffalo New York.  Gumbo was the special on the menu but our teams were enjoying the French Onion Soup so much that one of the teams even named themselves after it!!   We gathered as usual on the balcony with the beer, spirits and wings flowing as 4 teams battled it out for trivia mastery.   Our regulars were joined by some new faces tonight with our teams, Periodic Table Dancers, Pawsitively Purrfect, The Dragon Slayers, and French Onion Soup all participating in the fun.  As usual, we started with our General Knowledge round, where each team scored well.   Then moved on to our picture round with teams identifying the city that newspaper headlines came from.  Our third round was all about circus fun, being The Greatest Quiz On Earth and all teams did well with one team, The Periodic Table Dancers surging ahead in the scoring.  Our fourth round, Guess Who, stumped some of the teams but they all bounced back in the fifth round, Find the Connection.  Our Handout Round, Round Six, The Friend Zone, had players matching celebrity characters to their onscreen friends. Everyone had a great time with this!  In the last round, Improper Shakespeare, teams had to come up with Shakespearean plays with no proper nouns in the title.  All the teams surprised me with their depth of knowledge!   When it came down to it we had a run away winner, The Periodic Table Dancers with 69 points.  Second place was tightly contested with Pawsitevly Purrfect, and The Dragon Slayers tying at 35 points.  We went on to the tie breaking question and Pawsitevly Purrfect won to clinch second place.  The winners got Coles gift certificates and awesome beer swag ranging from t-shirts to playing cards and even tennis balls and koozies. A great night was had by all and I can't wait to do it all again next Wednesday at 7:00pm!
