QUIZ RECAP

There are few things as exciting as trivia night at Idle Hour. Perhaps skydiving while juggling chainsaws alongside angry bears, but you can't always do that on a Tuesday night! The room rumbled with energy as this Quizmaster approached the table, laptop in hand, ready to bare witness to questionable greatness. 

The show began slowly, with single-digit scores and no risk takers. It was as if the Double or Nothing didn't exist! Would this prove to be a low scoring night for our heroic Idle Hour crew? 

Oh no, reader. That was just Round One jitters. The points hit the proverbial fan just a few minutes later. 

With a thunderous double down, Party Time entered the arena a round late—but without any fear. The other competitors sensed a shift in the wind, and soon every team took swing after epic swing, trying to max out their scores whenever possible. 

While we did hit a bit of a slow patch with Round 4 (guess who is always a gamble), the Drinking Round reinvigorated our trivia titans. 

Since today was National Beer Day, we asked the teams to guess the highest ABV of Snake Venom, the most potent beer in the world. While many were close, Otrivia Rodrigo took the shots with style. The answer, for any curious travelers, is a terrifying 67.5%. 

Once we hit Round 5, our leader for the night cemented their position. Locking in with a ten point lead, it didn't seem possible to catch up...but no one told Trivia Newton John. 

In Round Six, with all the cards on the table, teams went for broke and double down like there was no tomorrow. For a few, it was the nail in the coffin. For others, the boost they needed to get within striking distance of the leaderboard. 

Finally, our Zillow question, a list to end all lists. Party time played it safe and secured an easy win with 73. It would take a mighty double to bring Trivia Newton John over the top, but they felt Snark Squad nipping at their heels. Rather than risk defeat, they took the second spot and the prize. 

If you missed this incredible night, fret not! We throw down the trivia gauntlet every Tuesday night at 8PM!
