QUIZ RECAP

It’s 2022, new year and a new you! Of course, any version of you should have come down to Idle Hour at 8pm for an amazing round of King Trivia! We had 18 teams in the gridiron with money money on their minds and a lust of lists…of questions. 

 

Veterans and newbies rubbed elbows in a packed (outdoor and safely spaced) house of quiz. With QM Adam and DJ Pandora rocking the mic, you knew it was going to be an epic showdown. Snark Squad, back from a huge New Year’s Bash, was itching for a win, and they had the trivial knowledge to prove it. Meanwhile, a rowdy group of newcomers named the Yellow Wine Club dove into the game with a fervor!

 

We went 5 rounds with a locked board, as most teams threw down doubles like it was V-Day after the war. A 5-way tie wouldn't do, so these teams started talking smack and building rivalries. It was enough to make a grown QM tear op. 

 

Veteran team Bean Brigade locked down the Drinking Round, earning them free drinks that, sadly, would be their consolation prize in the game. 

 

After a heated final half, it all came down to Round 7. Though a technical glitch nearly flipepd the scores, we managed to put the pieces together so the right parties walked away with their winnings. Third place was the always excellent Snark Squad, second went to We're the Hecking Best, and first was our newcomers Yellow Wine Club!

 

You don't want to miss the 2022 season of King Trivia, so come on down to Idle Hour every Tuesday night!
