The Pub at Golden Road is a full-service, family-friendly environment located just a stone’s throw from Griffith Park in Atwater Village. Open 7 days a week, The Pub offers ample indoor and outdoor seating, over a dozen Golden Road beers on tap, and games for the young (and young at heart).
Whaddaya call a dog with magical powers?
A labracadabrador!
Wow! Now that's what we call competition! We had a two-way tie for first place last night at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale last night, and a three-way-tie for third!! Wowzers!!
The delightful quartet of Harriet & The Spies (photos 1&2 above) barely edged out one of our favorite and most formidable teams, The Bad Explainers to win the night, and the $50 gift certificate. A $35 certificate for 2nd went to the Explainers! Congratulations, kids!
In an even more fraught and hard-fought battle, Dj Roomba managed to squeak by Long Live Johnny Trinh (who definitely lives!) and I Drink and I Know Things (who definitely knew things, and was almost certainly drinking!) to take third place and $25. Honorable mention to Tesla Libre, who finished just one point shy of making it a four-way tie for third! Great job all around, you accomplished quizzers!
This humble quizmaster always takes note of funny, witty or otherwise amusing team names, and I'm a BIG fan of a well-executed portmanteau. So I just gotta give a shout out to Guantanamo Bay City Rollers for their chuckle-inducing name. And the thought of a singing group called Jango and the Fetts brought a smile to my face as well! Well done!!
We just gotta give a shout out to Mary and the Birthday Buds. Mary turned 25 last night, opted to celebrate with beer and trivia, and did pretty well. Heck, they even won the drinking round! Happy birthday, Mary. You have excellent friends!
And lastly, a big shout out to At 98 We All Rotate. Why? Because they were the youngest players in the house, were cuter than anyone else in the room (for proof, see photo #4 above) and big sister, at ten years old, was invaluable in helping her mom, Blair, identify songs in the music round.
See there! King Trivia is fun for ALL AGES! Come see for yourself. We'll be back next week. Join us!
