What a night we had for our second week of King Trivia on Zoom!

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us from last week -- and all of our lovely new faces this week, too!

We had our mixed bag of General Trivia for Round One as always -- with questions pertaining to both films and news articles from 2020 as well as sports mascots from the 1970s.

Then, Round 2 saw us trying to name those Rockin' Ladies -- with ladies of Rock 'n' Roll though if I was playing, I would have put all Pat Benatar -- so all of y'all definitely did far better than me!

We had a four-way tie going into Round 3, which was quite exciting --

As equally exciting as the fact that today * is * National * Ice-Cream * Cone * Day!!!

Please, have a cone in honor of today and our Round 3 Find the Connection for those sweet, sweet ice-cream flavas!

That Neapolitan War was really the one that helped you the most, right?

It was the tipping point, as it most likely was in history as well.

Then, we finally came to Round 4, which had everyone joyfully naming the shows based on the Pictures of the Hosts.

Despite how Karla from Australia didn't get Nailed It, she loved my joke when I said "which teams got this show correct? That means you guys nailed it!"

And we all laughed over the memories that we have of Steve Harvey messing up pageant winners two years in a row and of course, I broke out my ice queen impression for Anne Robinson of "You are the weakest link, goodbye."

Well goodbye to everyone for tonight -- a nice of ice-cream and ice-queens -- but don't worry, Sanyee and Chris will bring the sunshine in quarantine!

See y'all next week!

And we ended the night with a two-way tie for third place, a two-way tie for second, and our educators Digressionary Funds winning for the night! They know their Zoom -- and trivia well 🙂
