With their Paunch burgers and calzones at the ready, our teams were hungry for some "Parks and Rec" themed trivia on Thursday! As Leslie Knope's crush led his own Town Hall, we invited a bunch of Pawnee residents to join us for questions concerning all things Haverford and Perkins. While many scores went the way of Lil Sebastian, several teams managed to stay in an epic five way tie all the way through until the final round. With the endurance of Chris Traeger, three teams ended our game with a nearly perfect score - but much like as in Highlander (a show Ben Wyatt most definitely was obsessed with for a time), there can only be one. And in the end, in a most unprecedented move that would have made the hairs on Ron's mustache twitch, Curlers R Smart and Joan's Gotcha Dancers ended up in a second tie! A tie on top of a tie! Try and sell that at Tommy's Closet! Pulling from the vaults and King Trivia time capsules, we pushed aside Kelley's Twilight novels and pulled out a Halloween-themed Survey Slam question to settle the score.

And in the end, Curlers R Smart treated themselves to a win and will each be mailed a complimentary steak from tonight's sponsor, Charles Mulligan's Steakhouse.

Thanks to all who attended and we'll see you at the next one!
