QUIZ RECAP

The groundhog apparently could not find his shadow, hence predicting two weeks of early spring but we all agreed it was way too cold and near-frosty outside so we kept it warm and toasty in GOAL!

We welcomed Cody's return, a sight for sore eyes, bringing GOAL Regulators back into the game for the first time all 2020!

And then Ellie held down the formidable fort for Mark Dellham Sux well into Round 4.

I Lost My Virginity At... took an early lead with a successful double down after Round One, which boggled new players BOSTON who were like "how could they get 14 and we only get 3?"

Well, what can I say? They're trivia pros 🙂

They doubled down along with Cody from GOAL Regulators and Spicey Meat-a-Ball to name those shady characters, well silhouettes of famous cartoon characters. Y'all watch a lotta cartoons! I didn't even know Dexter. I was like who's Dexter? And Jasmine called out "from Dexter's Lab!"

Round 3 with Famous Freds was where GOAL started to advance ahead as they doubled down when no other team did. For the q, "All-Star 'Downtown' Freddie Brown played 13 seasons for what Washington team?"

I Lost My Virginity At... guessed Washington Wizards, then crossed it out. The answer was Seattle SuperSonics, but I love the idea of a sports team being alliterative and called the Wizards!

For Round 4, I Lost My Virginity At... was just as trigger-happy as last week, turning in the answer at the ten-point clue. However, they were in the ballpark of the individual and didn't guess the actual one. They guessed Robin Roberts when the individual in question was Katie Couric. But so close!!

They dropped to a tied second at 33 pts with Spicey Meat-a-Ball, GOAL clung onto their lead and Mark Dellham Sux was in last.

Then, we had a glorious Drinking Round to honor this Sunday's upcoming Oscars weekend, going round to name Best Pictures from years past!

Our rep from GOAL seemed to know all the years that films were nominated but not the actual winners -- so that is still good historical savvy. Plus, he's a member of the Academy so he definitely gave props to I Lost My Virginity At...'s Andrew who was the last one standing!

Ellie said Wizard of Oz, GOAL rep said Citizen Kane, neither had actually won but we agreed all were robbed of the Oscars back in their day. Well, I guess we'll just tune into this weekend's Oscars, the Superbowl of Hollywood Awards Season, to see who gets robbed this time around!

Round Five connection tripped up everyone except for I Lost My Virginity At... who got the connection!

Not "a bunch of fun things," or "wastefulness" but all types of parlors!

I Lost My Virginity At... then stayed in a close second with the handout round, matching the former capitals to their countries -- I said y'all were expected to do well bc of your international team members, with two Aussies and one visiting very photogenic New Zealander 🙂

Mark Dellham Sux though roared on ahead with the lead through a successful double down even as they conjectured two guesses and then we entered Round 7, which was yet again Oscars-themed. Naming Best Pic nominees from 2019!

Our GOAL Academy member got five outta eight though he said all of this year's nominees were the ones fresher in his mind. Plus he gets to go to the Oscars so he can enjoy that as the grandest prize of all!

I Lost My Virginity At... doubled down but left off one movie nominee, forgetting The Favourite and instead putting Dunkirk. And Mark Dellham Sux had yet another successful double down! "Started from the bottom, now we're here" was the theme of their rise tonight -- and maybe the opposite for I Lost My Virginity At... but Nathan said he loves trivia so much he even designed some trivia q's and hosted a game of his own at work!

I'll see y'all next week for G(O)AL-entine's! Okay that's supposed to be Galentine's cuz I'll be your gal hosting trivia at GOAL.
