QUIZ RECAP

Rain, rain, go away! You’re harshing the vibe here at Idle Hour…oh wait! What’s that? 26 teams still braved this crazy storm to engage in the greatest show of all…KING TRIVIA! What a surprise. 

Actually, it’s no surprise at all when you’ve got the best show in all of NoHo. These trivia titans brought umbrellas, rain coats, and insane energy as we dove into seven rounds of incredible quizzical action. 

Round One proved slightly more of a challenge for a crowd of mostly new players, but our vets were here to show them how it’s done. We had a four-way tie for first: Emergency Food: Let’s a-Go gurt, 720 of emotions, Trivia?, and Da Bears.

Round Two took our teams to cinematic snow drifts, and allowed Da Bears to sled into the lead. 

Round Three in put love in the air, but the top spot wasn’t moving. Second place whittled down to Alcohollabackgirls and The Downhill Sassholes.

Round Four took no one by surprise, and our teams hardly moved their positions. It seemed like we needed to break the tension with a little free booze. 

Drinking Round asked the question…why does February only have 28 days? With the winning answer, the free shots went to Garf!

Round Five was a deelish connection served at an easy medium-rare. Half Straws followed their stomachs and took the lead. 

Round Six was no one’s friend, but that just meant it was a boon for the readers of the pack. Diana Spencer’s Gifts, lingering in the shadows for so long, suddenly jumped into the lead!

Round Seven went fast and furious, and proved a challenge even for the veterans, but soon the way was clear for a winner. 

We held a rapid-fire tie breaker and crowned our winners: Diana Spencer’s Gifts, Half Straws, and Da Bears!
