QUIZ RECAP

Holy cow! Over one hundred people came back from Thanksgiving with only one thought on their minds: Dominate in King Trivia! 25 teams arrived in our barrel-shaped bar to throw down in a contest of champions, bringign with them all the fire and hunger you'd expect for a Tuedsay night NoHo crowd. 

With newbies and veterans champing at the bit to get started, this QM readied a salvo of trivial missiles and set to work giving these folks the show they deserved. 

Round One went down easy, with eight teams earning perfect scores. Soon, however, it became anyone's game. The leaderboard shifted faster than the gears in a Fast and Furious film. By the end of Round Four, our top ten were mere points apart. 

As this was the Third Night of Chanukah, we decided to hold a good ol' fashioned Dreidel-Off! Every team played in a bracket, whittling down the competition until only 5 remained. It was a test of endurance, with the longest spin winning the free shots! In the end, with an amazing score of 12.44 seconds, Quiz Kid Donnie Smith took home the drinks and accolades. 

Our second half separated the teams even more, with a few ill-advised doubles sending some fresh-faced teams toward the back of the pack. By the time we reached Round Seven, CHICKEN NUGGETS and Bean Brigade seemed destined for victory. But it's not over until it's over. 

Round Seven took everyone by surpise, and it came down to a tie-breaker and a single point of victory. Buttery Smooth Brains eked out a narrow lead over Cul De Sac Crew, and CHICKEN NUGGETS took the top spot from Danger Nights Crew (who were warned twice about Sloppy Steaks). 

You just had to be there to feel that energy...so don't miss out next time! King Trivia goes down every Tuesday night at 8PM, and we can't wait to see you.
