What an amazing fun time again on Wednesday night at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills for King Trivia! Seriously, if you haven't been, you're truly missing out on a great time! Here's what happened this week....

For the Drinking Round teams had to send up one player to play in a game that originated on the game show Minute to Win It, but modified for the Drinking Round. Each player was given 30 seconds to try and blow playing cards off the top of a wine bottle. They could stop any time they wanted, and the objective was to blow off as many cards as possible without blowing all the cards off. Many teams tried, but only three were successful at leaving some playing cards on the top of the bottle. The first team to do it was the Mighty Mighty Puffins, who left 29 cards, then Naked Attraction did it and left 12 which many thought was going to be the winner. But finally, a team appropriately named for the round, Amy's Aces ended up leaving only an impressive 9 cards on the bottle to secure their Drinking Round win and a round of shots! Very skilled!

For third place, we had a tie breaker question between Johnny 5 is Alive and Alternative Facts. They had to guess closest to the correct number of how many stolen bases does the record holder of the most stolen bases have in his entire career. Both teams guessed a low number, but Alternative Facts was the closest and won the third place prize! Both teams scored 47 points.

In a rare second place, the Mighty Mighty Puffins took home the $20 gift certificate with their 54 points scored during the game.

Taking 1st thanks to a successful double or nothing in the final round, were the elated Xenolux, who always relishes a victory over their rivals the Puffins. They were able to guess 10 of the 14 current animals being produced in the boxes of Stauffer's Animal Crackers cookies and scored 62 points, which was good enough for them to take home the $30 gift certificate! Awesome job!

That concludes this week's recap of King Trivia at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills! See you next Wednesday for some more fun!
