QUIZ RECAP

January may be on the way out, but trivia never DIES. Welcome to Idle Hour and the best show in all of NoHo…KING TRIVIA! The weather was just perfect as our gaggle of gorgeous gladiators descended on the barrel-shaped battlefield to vie for eternal glory…and some free drinks. 

25 teams arrived with trivia in their hearts and an insatiable thirst for bad puns (and delicious drinks), so we jumped right into the show. 

Round One was a strong warmup and led to a 4-way tie at the top of the board: Here for the Host, Quiz Kid Donnie Smith, Kingbeez, and Finishing Pints.

Round Two as a challenge for our less musically-inclined teams, but Finish ingPints took a chance and leapt into first, followed by Here for the Guac.

Round Three tested our teams knowledge of celebrities and celebrity outlaws. Finishing Pints maintained a strong lead, and Bean Bag pushed their way into second.

Round Four ended up without a major change, adding some pressure to the teams going into the halfway point. 

As we are nearing Valentine’s Day, this QM decided to throw a bonus round into the show and asked the teams to deliver their best V Day puns. With not only a great pun but a great digital card, 720 of Emotions became the first QM Valentine!

For our Drinking Round, we celebrated National Backward Day by playing famous songs backwards. After a few rounds, Bulldogs came out ahead and earned the free shots. 

Round Five was a round all about the amazing fake life and times of one infamous Congressperson. Finishing Pints held their lead, but gave up ground to the eager teams behind. Could they stay strong for two more rounds?

Round Six was almost too easy, and the needle didn’t move on the leaderboard as we rounded into the final stretch of the show! 

Round Seven challenged not only our teams’ endurance but their grammar! It was a photo finish!

We finally crowned our champions: Finish Pints, Bean Bag, and Move Over Jay-Z, It’s Gay-Z!

 

Join us every Tuesday for more King Trivia!
