Recap – Idle Hour
Tue Jan 16 2024
QUIZ RECAP
With a brief respite from the frigid temperatures, it was the perfect evening for some epic trivia. Fortunately, Idle Hour knows just what NoHo needs…and that’s seven rounds of the best game in the business: KING TRIVIA!
26 teams arrived for the delicious food, delightful drinks, and diabolical questions of our patented trivia format.
It only took Trivial Pursuit of Dat Ass two rounds to step into the top spot, but they were followed closely by veterans of the Idle Hour arena. It was destined to be a heck of a scrum.
We’re the Problem wasn’t satisfied to be left in the dust. They managed to tie in the third, and steal the lead in the fourth. By Round 5, they were 12 points ahead on a crazy double down.
During our Drinking Round, we paid respects the best snack grade schoolers could hope for: Fig Newtons! With some amazing guesswork the 69ers took home the free shots.
With only a few rounds left, it was going to come down to risky doubles and plenty trivia trouble. Bernie Maximus laid into the accelerator and drove all the way to second place with only a single round to spare. It was going to be a photo finish!
Our winners for the night were We’re the Problem It’s Us, Bernie Maximus, and Grandma’s Ghost!
