QUIZ RECAP

Warm weather and cool drinks make a fine pair, just like Tuesday evening and INTENSE TRIVIA ACTION. That’s right, heroes. The crowds descended upon our barrel-shaped bastion of good times for another session of King Trivia!

23 teams cast their hats into the ring, ready to face off in quizzical combat for the coveted prizes of the leaderboard. With everything at stake and their beers getting warm, it was time to start the show. 

Round 1 left us with the biggest tie we’ve ever had as more than ten teams doubled and won. With spirits high, we launched into Round 2…which was destined to humbled our champions. 

With iconic images of feminist leaders flying, only two teams were able to scrape together the points to climb higher in the ranks: Algorithm and Blues and Stu and the Soups. Our top ten was mere points away from one another, so this was destined for a scrum. 

Round 4 saw a major shakeup as InFactuated and Jack and the Offs leapt ahead with clutch guesses, securing the top two spots away from our former leaders. It was time to lower the temperature of the room with some cold drinks.

As it was National Airborne Day, we celebrated the founding of our fearless fliers from the 101st Airborne. With an absolutely spot on guess, Landback won free shots and the honor of all those heroes in AC-130s around the world. 

Round 5 saw another scuffle for the top spots, with barely a point separating the future winners of the grand prize. Jack and the Offs unseated their rivals with a massive double, taking the lead with only a few rounds left to play. 

Round 6 brought even more chaos as our cooks turned up the heat in the kitchen, mixing and matching dishes and ingredients. When the smoke cleared and the meals were served…every team had pretty much known the correct pairing! Which meant our scores weren’t so different heading in to the final round!

With everything on the line, the teams dug deep into their knowledge of the World Cup, but there could only be one to emerge triumphant in the end. 

As we held our closing ceremonies, we crowned our new champions: Jack and the Offs, Leg Day (never forget), and Win or Booze!

Come join us every Tuesday for more King Trivia action!
