The coffee shop was hoppin' and the quiz teams were boppin'
last night as four teams came together for another exciting
King Trivia Pub Quiz. Although Dunn Brothers is a coffee shop,
on Thursdays they become a pub!
Veteran duo The Bumble Bees brought some friends this time.
Not that they need it as most times they manage to walk off
with a prize due to their fifty pound brains. So Quiz Master
Lou is thinking with all that help they'll be sure to win
tonight! Nope. They finished last. I'm sure there's a saying
for that, but I can't think of one right now.
Deadly Alliance edged them out for a third place win while the
Rockafellers grabbed second. Top honors go to Pickles on a
Plate who not only took first prize but did so with authority!
Right out of the gate they Double-or-Nothing'd taking an early
lead and again in Round Three nearly doubling their score against
all others, cruising easily for the big win.
Our quiz writers provided us with a very nice assortment of
questions covering pop culture, history, sports and movies with
a smattering of science questions thrown in for good measure.
On that, QM Lou would like to point out that Anton Chekhov
is the playwright while Pavel Chekhov is the helmsman for the
USS Enterprise. Further, the food acronym EVOO led to some
questions about Popeye, but this tactful QM did not voice them.
That's all I got. Have a great weekend!
