QUIZ RECAP
The VIBE:
A slow developing night. For the first time, I held the game about 15 minutes so I could round up some more teams. I mean, let's be honest, parking in this city SUCKS.
The GAME:
Round 1 - Three teams, who were all first timers, had to be courted through the "hand in your answers to me" process. But after they had that down, we were smooth sailing.....sort of.
Series regulars, Gangrene Gang, took an early lead with 17 points after Round 2/Pictures. It was a sports round that apparently most teams did not believe in.
Round 3 was super exciting for me and I applaud our Question Making Super Team for introducing a new category - Haikus! That being said, it was super hard. Everyone hated me.
The hatred continued into Round 4 where they had to guess a place. Even I will admit - this was tough. Props to the BoozeCats who were the only team to land Old Faithful!
Oh. After Round 4, T & S admitted they were too drunk to play anymore - so they quickly left to go throw-up I presume. Good for them.
Round 5 was another mess. Somehow also the lowest scoring round of the night. Clearly I needed to change up the energy of the room. So what better way.....then....the.....
Drinking Round! Taking a page from my own NINTENDO Night playbook, we played "Find The Differences" once again and it was a riot of a good time. This was the much needed I Know I Am Here Playing Trivia But Please Don't Ask Me Any More Questions For Like Five Minutes round.
Round 6 was a musical matching round - or as the teams called it - a musical guessing round.
I took one look at Round 7 and laughed out loud. "Name 10 of the 12 apostles, according to the New Testament." It seemed like the perfect ending to an unusually difficult game.
The RESULTS:
5th place went to the drunkest team of the night.....T & S (10 points).
After hearing they had to pretend to be religious for Round 7, they didn't even bother playing. Ok. Fair enough, Queens of Kings (13 points).
It was KALIYAH's birthday so the team of 8 let her be the name. Awwww how sweet. Here is 3rd place (24 points) and a drink token. (Please don't give it to T&S).
Gangrene Gang (32 points) played strong in the first half but weren't able to stop the musical, CCD loving......
BoozeCats (40 points) who took home the Grand Prize as champions of the night!
Don't forget: Winter is here...this Spring!

(This will sell out. I mean, "It's not HBO. It's King Trivia.")
