That evening was straight up electiric. Never before had I seen a crowd that was so ravenous for trivia at Ravenna Brew Co. It was a packed house, so packed that some teams even had to sit outside to get a piece of the pie that was King Trivia @ Ravenna on a Tuesday Night.
In what slowly, but surely became a blowout it was Circle Jerks in a win that was both impressive, and not as big as it should have been. In the second round there was a intra-team argument among the 'Jerks.' One faction believed that they had superior intellect and should go for 'Double or Nothing.' The other side was vehemently against this, they wanted to go with some sure points in what was a budding lead. In the end the Hot Seat was firmly situated behind the rear's of the conservatives. But justice was had as the team did get all answers correct and would have taken a commanding lead early on in this contest. Luckily for the Conservative group there was no permanent damage as the Circle of Jerks was able to win in the end.
Not to be outdone in terms of entertainment, the second place battle was a sight to be seen. Two teams jockeyed for position in That's So Raven-na and Hurricane Harvey Refugees (for real!). The score was not always like this. Neither Hurricane Harvey Refugees nor That's So Raven-na were in competition for second, they were barely in the picture for forth! It was on the back of a couple game breaking double or nothing successes that propelled these teams in their current positions in our narrative. As round seven came to a close, thing were all knotted up at 44 points apiece. It all came down to one final question, the TIE BREAKING QUESTION. How long is Beyonce's Single 'Single Ladies' in seconds? With an answer of 193 seconds it was Hurricane Harvey that was able to best their combatant with a guess of 210 points.
Not to fear! All teams had a great night and enjoyed some quality beer, food and music courtesy of Ravenna Brewing Comapany, Nacho Average Food Truck and Myself. Join us in the fun next week as the Circle of Jerks try to defend their title on what surely will become another great night of King Trivia at Ravenna Bewing Company.
