It was a gorgeous evening in the MDR as eight teams competed to win King Trivia on Independence Day Eve. Scores were high, partially helped by one question being about a neighborhood 1/4 mile away. Scrippsies started with an early lead, but Dunder Baby Griffin took the lead in round 3 with back to back double-or-nothings and never looked back. If you're not second, you're third pipped the Scrippsies for second (third?) in the final round with their encyclopedic knowledge of Gary Oldman films. Scrippsies won the shots round along with third place. Good times were had by all!
