QUIZ RECAP

Record temperatures and intractable studio execs couldn’t keep the teams away from Idle Hour for another session of the greatest show in all of NoHo…KING TRIVIA! 26 teams braved the sweltering heat to enjoy frozen drinks and…icy thinks? Questions, they came for the questions. 

LET’S GET TO THE SHOW!

Round One was a solid warm up with a 4-way tie at the top: Here for the Host, Bernie Maximus, Buds Lightyear, We’re the problem, it’s us.

Round Two was a massive stumper, with no one risking a double. The points came hard-earned, but Bernie Maximus founds themselves with a small lead. 

Round Three brought things back into true form, with veterans dropping doubles like they were playing hot potato. Bernie extended their lead and looked to be making moves to another sweep. 

Round Four started to shake things up as a cautious play cost Bernie the lead, with We’re the Problem leaping into first. 

Our Drinking Round played the Price is Right with bulk purchases of caviar. With the closest guess by a mile, Kingbeez earned the free shots (and just in time for a birthday!)

Round 5 saw We’re the problem take a massive lead as one of the few teams to put all the pieces together for our Find the Connection. 

But all was not lost for Bernie. With Round Six, they used their combined knowledge of film and television to put a solid double into the scoreboard and close within 6 points of first place. It would all come down to the final round.

 

We ended the night with a big win. We’re the problem, it’s us, Bernie Maximus, and Antlers Away!
