QUIZ RECAP

After a sweltering weekend, what could be more refreshing than a sweet platter of Trivia? Beer and Cocktails? Well, fortunately the Federal has both! It was a mellow night in NoHo, but the good times still rolled with 7 rounds of fun in the back room.

8 Teams ventured forth to test themselves for the chance to win one of Two Gift Cards tonight.

Round 1 had quite a spread with one successful double-down from veterans "Trivial Pursuers, and a wide range of 1-6 from the rest of our contestants. In Round 2 things got more down to brass tacks with no adventurous doubles, but every team scoring high...ish.

Rounds 3 and 4 brought a little bit of hurt as waning confidence kept scores hovering with a below 50% average, but after an epic Rochambeau tournament, Round 5 pulled the bell curve a little higher.

Desperation and strategy began to mount as 2 teams succeeded in securing 20 points and upended the scoreboard. Math being against many in round 7 brought a few forlorn hopes and a conclusion to our questions.

"I Smart In Your General Direction" put up a valiant and indifferent fight all night, but the best team name wasn't quite enough to make it through 7 rounds against "Walking Talking Steven Hawking"; and no one could bring a finale like "Howard's End"
