QUIZ RECAP

Wednesday night at College Bar & Grill, 5 teams arrived to test their trivia skills. Our teams for the evening were, This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool (who changed the last word of their team name each round, hence the long title), Just The Tip, Uncertainty Principle, Buh-buh-buh-buhnanas!, and Furikake Salmon.

Our general knowledge for Round 1 seemed to be a breeze for a majority of the players, the most commonly missed question was the Wednesday Question of the Day. At the end of the first round Buh-buh-buh-buhnanans! was in first place with 7 points (after including the additional 2 points for registering their team). We had a tie for second place at 6 points between Uncertainty Principle and Just The Tip. In third with 4 points was This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool and in last with 2 points was Furikake Salmon.

For our ladies in red of Round 2 our most commonly misidentified females were Ashley Siinelli from Recess and DiDi Pickles from Rugrats. Buh-buh-buh-buhnanans! didn't miss a single question in this round, Furikake Salmon only got 1 correct in this round, and the rest of our teams only missed 1 question each.

In Round 3 our teams were looking for answers that only contained 4 letters. The most commonly missed answer was a question asking about types of corn, but our teams assumed it was types of peas. By the end of this round Buh-buh-buh-buhnanans! were maintaining first place with 19 points, tailing behind with 18 points was Uncertainty Principle. In third, also falling close behind, was Just The Tip with 17 points. Falling behind them in fourth was This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool. And finally in fifth place was Furikake Salmon with 5 points.

In Round 4 our players were attempting to guess who our famous mystery person was. Teams This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool and Just The Tip guessed incorrectly and each lost 1 point for their teams. Uncertainty Principle and Furikake Salmon each were able to correctly guess after 4 clues, meaning they each won 4 extra points for their teams. And Buh-buh-buh-buhnanas! guessed Jack Black correctly after just 3 clues, earning 6 points for their team.

The Round 5 Find the Connection seemed to be all across the board for our teams last night, with some doing phenomenally while others were left in the dust. This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool decided to use their Double or Nothing play in this round and thankfully for them it paid off giving them a total of 20 extra points! Buh-buh-buh-buhnanas! only missed one question this round, Uncertainty Principle missed 2, Just The Tip missed 6, and Furikake Salmon missed 9. Truly an all over the place experience for each of these teams.

My personal favorite round last night was Round 6 where our teams were given a list of descriptions of mythological creatures and had to match them to their correct name. 3 teams decided to use their Double or Nothing plays in this round, those teams were Furikake Salmon, Buh-buh-buh-buhnanas!, and Uncertainty Principle. For Buh-buh-buh-buhnanans! and Uncertainty Principle this worked out very nicely allowing each team to gain an additional 20 points each! Unfortunately, Furikake Salmon did not have the same luck and left the round earning nothing. Our other 2 teams each only missed 1 of the answers.

By Round 7 Furikake Salmon had dropped out of the game leaving just 4 remaining teams. In Round 7 they were asked to name 10 U.S. states with the most individual farms as of 2018. Everyone seemed to struggle a bit with this question.

By the end of the game in, in last place with 12 points was Furikake Salmon. In fourth with 34 points was Just The Tip. In third, This Bar Sucks/Fucks/Hucks/Duck?/Clucks/Shucks/Is Cool with 52 points. In second place with 56 points was Uncertainty Principle. And our first place winner was Buh-buh-buh-buhnanas! with 60 points!
