QUIZ RECAP

April 3rd's trivia night at College Bar & Grill would be a game that started out with 4 teams and slowly dwindle down to 2 rounds passed. 1 of these teams, which called themselves Bippus, ended their reign after just 2, so unfortunately their points will not be counted for this game/recap. Our main contenders were I'm not picky, Heinous Anus, and Bye Bye Ferras.

In Round 1 the teams had already shown signs of a close race to $100. After including College Bar's own bonus question (Who is the first ASU Hockey player to sign an NHL contract?) Team Bippus (RIP) and Bye Bye Ferras began with a tie of 4 points, while Heinous Anus came out of Round One with 7 points and I'm not picky following tightly behind with 6 points!

In Round 2, teams I'm not picky and Heinous Anus each doubled their current total points while Bye Bye Ferras and Bippus (RIP) continued their tie with 9 points now. Unfortunately, for this quizmaster and all of College Bar & Grill, after just 2 rounds we tragically lost team Bippus. They fought hard but just couldn't take the heat.

Despite their current lead, team Heinous Anus earned the least amount of points in our Muy Caliente round although they maintained their lead with 17 points total. I'm not picky continued their close second to Heinous Anus with 16 points after Round 3, while Bye Bye Ferras had 13 points total.

Our Guess Who round seemed to be an easy answer for teams Heinous Anus and I'm not picky who both answered correctly on just the second hint, earning them each 8 points for the round! Unfortunately Bye Bye Ferras were distracted by the baseball game occurring and the conversations in the bar made an incorrect guess to who John Goodman, our favorite 6'3 panda, was and ended the round with 12 points.

According to these teams the common theme in Round 5 was New York, which while wrong, I can personally see where they were coming from. Many of these teams did well on this round, with a majority of the teams earning 7 points each! Our most interesting answers in this round were The Farmer in the Deli for being the song that contains the lyrics "hi-ho the derry-o" and Daily Mail being the British Newspaper to have existed since 1821. At the end of this round Heinous Anus continued their lead with 32 points, while I'm not picky had 31, and Bye Bye Ferras had 17 points.

Almost everyone got all of the answers correct in Round 6 which I'm sure they had no second thoughts about. In the end, the use of the Double or Nothing play made all the difference giving Heinous Anus 50 points at the end of the round. Had I'm not picky used their Double or Nothing during this round they may have won the whole game. Instead they fished this round with 41 points and Bye Bye Ferras with 25 points.

By Round 7 Heinous Anus and I'm not picky were in a fight for the death while Bye Bye Ferras went bye-bye to study their geography (aka they threw in the towels before turning in an answer sheet for this round). In a tragic twist of fate for I'm not picky decided to use their Double or Nothing this round and they missed just a single answer in the second part of round. Leaving them with just the points for registering their team and returning their pen, finishing off with 45 points. Our winners of the $100 cash prize came out to be the Heinous Anus who completed the game with 61 points total!

Congratulations to each of these games for coming out and playing! Join us next Wednesday at 8, and don't forget College Bar has begun giving out a $100 cash prize to the first place winners on the first Wednesdays of each month!
