It was a packed house and an eager crowd this Tuesday night as 18 teams arrived at Idle Hour for the best show in town: King Trivia. There's no business like, oh, quizness...and we were eager to throw down.
As per usual, the first few rounds were a chance to shake loose the cobwebs and get newbies introduced to how we get quizzy with it. By the end of Round 4, the scores were starting to sort themselves into a more manageable line, with Snark Squad sneaking an early lead.
The Drinking Round was tough, as most of these folk didn't know that Winnie the Pooh was the only Latin book (translated) to make the NYT bestsellers list. Fortunately, a little more trivia about the world's favorite stuffed-with-fluff bear lead to It's Quizness Time earning a free round.
As we launched into the final half of the show, Agents of the Zeitgeist battled an early deficit to rise toward the leader board. Meanwhile, My Little Pony Express stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the top teams, hoping for a clean win.
As it often does, the show came down to the final question. Some youngsters didn't quite know all the ingredients in a Big Mac, but that's okay. They still put on a good show and earned a hefty load of points.
In the end, High Tops took the grand prize, with Snark Squad and Agents of the Zeitgeist rounding out our leaders.
You can't miss another night of King Trivia, so get on down to Idle Hour every Tuesday at 8pm!
