QUIZ RECAP

This week 10 teams gathered at Snakes & Lattes for a night of trivia! With much of our rounds consisting of tied scores its a surprise they didn't all get first place!

Our first General Knowledge round left us with 4 teams tied for first place with 8 points, 2 tied for second with 7 points, 3 tied for third at 6 points, and 1 in fourth place with 4 points.

Round 2 asked them to identify the video game fighter characters shown in the images. Our most commonly misidentified fighter was Glass Joe from Mike Tyson's Punch Out.

Round 3 this week was all about corn! By this point Smart and Pretty had broken through into a solid first place with 20 points, with Damsels Doing It Their Damn Selves, 12 Left Feet, and The Procrastinators still trailing just behind them with 19 points each. And behind them with a tie for third at 18 points was between Let's Get Quizzical and Big Brains. Then Team Too Spooky and Team Essex Street tied for fourth with 17 points. In fifth, Results TBD with 15 and in sixth Slytherin with 14 points. So it was still all a very close game!

Round 4 this week was a Guess Who. 4 of our teams were able to identify the mystery person. The Procrastinators were able to earn 8 points, Slytherin and Team Essex Street were able to earn 6 points each, and 12 Left Feet earned 2 points.Smart and Pretty and Team Too Spooky got the last name correctly but unfortunately put the incorrect full first name, meaning they each lost a point.

Round 5's Find the Connection proved to be tricky this week. While none of our teams were able to guess the commonality correctly, a few were quite close! The commonality in this week's answers were that they all contained words of a Yiddish origin.

Round 6 asked the teams to match the fictional father to their children! Let's Get Quizzical decided to play their Double or Nothing in this round. While they did not match up all of the answers, they did get all of the ones they wrote in correct allowing their team to earn 12 additional points!

And our final round this week asked the teams to name the 5 actresses to be nominated for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress at the 2020 Academy Awards. Many of our teams struggled a bit in this round, but 12 Left Feet was able to name all 10 of these women and they played their Double or Nothing this round giving them 20 extra points to close out the game with! This use of their Double or Nothing gave this team the upper hand, bumping them into first place with 50 points even!

All of our teams did a great job last night! Come join us next week for King Trivia at Snakes & Lattes, Tuesday nights at 7PM!
