QUIZ RECAP

Tue May 24 2022

A glorious evening in May out here in NoHo, and what could be finer than some trivia that’s divine-er? That’s right, we brought King Trivia to the masses for another outstanding show! National Escargot Day brought out all the champions, but only one could be crowned our winner of the night? Who would it be?

Twenty teams started the show with big dreams and bigger glasses of ice cold refreshment. When Round One came to a close, we only had two teams holding the lead: Drunkin’ Donuts and Open the Ice Cream Dog (Whoof). Surprisingly, neither team had doubled down, meaning the scoreboard was as tight as it’s ever been leaving the opening session. Round Two put a few more points on the board, as teams were more comfortable risking it all for the big win. Quiz Kid Donnie Smith, our returning champions, lingered only a point behind the top spot, eager to defend their title. 

Rounds Three saw a new dynasty rise to the top as Snark Squad and Old Fashioned Palomas took the top spots, only to see Snark Squad fall to Team Zuzu in Round Four! This was our most volatile game of King Trivia that Idle Hour had ever seen!

In our drinking round, we challenged the teams to determine the amount of snails consumed in France in a single year. NoHo Hank took the free shots with a close (but still not quite on the dot) guess, earning them the ire of the thirst patrons. 

Round 5 saw Palomas and Zuzu secure their lead, but Quiz Kid Donnie Smith was racing behind in third. With all top ten teams only points away from each other, this was going to be an insanely close finish!

Round Six saw Zuzu leapfrog the competition, but we ended Round Seven with a MASSIVE tie for second and third place. After a scrum to figure out the real winners, we finally settled our leaderboard. 

Team Zuzu took the top spot, followed by Old Fashioned Palomas and Adam’s the Best (who clearly won best name of the night)!

 

Come join us at Idle Hour every Tuesday for more King Trivia action.
