QUIZ RECAP
Tonight at Longship Brewery, we saw the definition of a close game. At the end of round five, there were three teams tied for second place, and the first place team only had a single point lead. It really doesn't get much closer than that when it comes to trivia.
Newcomers, Beerspiration hit a successful double or nothing in round two, and held a lead for along time, until round four, when several teams got Sister Mary Clarence herself, Whoopi Goldberg on the ten point clue.
From there, Beerspiration along with Indifferent Penguins, Cyber Chemists, The Moops, and back from a hiatus Where's Brenda?, all traded leads and points through the latter half of the game.
We took a break for the Beer Round, where we took a turn to the world of sports for a change, and asked our teams to name the year in which Sonny Jurgensen tossed 32 TD passes, which was 1961. That a Philadelphia Eagles franchise record which had stood until this past Sunday, where Carson Wentz hit his 33rd on the year. Beerspiration was the closest with their guess of 1959.
Then we returned to Saintly sixth round, where Where's Brenda? identified 8 of the 10 Saints and what they are patrons of. This gave them the lead going into the final round, and they were able to hold on and claim the victory. The Moops came in second, with the Cyber Chemist, a team of one tonight, clenching third.
We hope to see you all come out next week and try your luck at King Trivia. Don't forget that the Christmas toy drive is going on at Longship up until Christmas Eve. So if you're going to stop by, consider bringing an unwrapped toy to make someone's Christmas a little brighter.
