QUIZ RECAP

The stars were aligned for the final King Trivia show at Idle Hour before Halloween! Teams arrived from all around the city to celebrate in style with seven rounds of America's favorite trivia game (citation needed). 

With fifteen tough groups and a building-filled with eager competitors, this QM couldn't wait to get the show moving. We opened with an easy General Round to lull the teams into a sense of false confidence. A few double downs, but no one emerged yet as the clear leaders. Then came Round 2. 

We asked the teams to suss out the innards of popular candy bars. While most teams struggled, one group had the sweet tooth and the presence of mind to snatch a perfect round. Mo's Hos, celebrating a birthday, had the energy to leap into first place. But how long could they hold on?

Round after round, Mo's Hos built up a sizable lead at first place. By Round 4's end, it seemed as though they might fly away with the game. But we needed to take a break for the Drinking Round, so the other teams began to plan. 

The free shots went to, you guessed it, Mo's Hos after the titular Mo used a personal anecdote to sort out an answer...and won her team a final birthday gift! However, this is when fortunes turn at Idle Hour. 

For the next few rounds, the leaderboard shifted every single time. Doubles were dropped, wild bets were missed, and suddenly we had a fight for the last few points on our hands. It was anyone's game in the final moments of our tournament. 

The big win came in Round Seven as three teams dropped massive doubles to secure their spots in the leaderboard. The Concan Cans took the top spot, with Snark Squad and Mighty Mart in the 2nd and 3rd place. New Year's Eve Nurses deserve a spot as well, climbing out of a deep well from the early game to earn a shot at the top. 

Come on down to Idle Hour every Tuesday at 8PM for more trivia action!
