QUIZ RECAP

Tue Jun 7 2022

The weather is turning warm, which means the trivia is heating up! Rising mercury couldn’t keep the teams away from Idle Hour this Tuesday for another outstanding round of King Trivia. 19 groups of quizzical questers entered the barrel-shaped battlefield for an epic throw-down. 

After Round One, we saw our usual massive tie, with seven teams sharing the top spot. Not to worry, as these fierce competitors would stand for sharing the prize. Blood was in the air as we charged forward into the remaining half of the show. 

Our early leaders were Quiz Kid Donnie Smith, Algorithm and Blues, and Snark Squad. Strategic doubles gave them a healthy margin entering the third and fourth rounds, but newbie teams Jo-Jo’s and Banshees of Burbank were hot on their heels. 

Suddenly, Algorithm and Blues took a commanding lead, using a monstrously risky double to leapfrog the competition. But Risky Quizness was close behind, and three teams held a tie for third going into Round 5. 

After finding the connection, our leaders were separated by only ten points. Quiz Kid Donnie Smith launched into a fight for second, while Murder Hornets and Kingbeez fought for third! 

As we entered the final round, emotions were high and drink orders were overflowing. It was going to be a photo finish…and possibly a tie to break!

Yet at the end, we saw a clean finish with Algorithm and Blues in front, Quiz Kid Donnie Smith in second, and Murder Hornets in third. 

Come join us every Tuesday for more King Trivia!
