QUIZ RECAP
You ever have one of those nights where you double down on everything you're not supposed to, and don't double down on every round you were supposed to? That didn't happen to The Implication tonight, but everyone else was caught up in that mess.
Stark were brand new to the game and came in on the third round, so their double-down demise was inevitable. And yet, if they show up on time next week and bring in reinforcements, I'm sure they'd cause quite an upset. The night was a bit rougher for King Trivia connoisseurs Thirsty Pretzels, who were betrayed by that tempting double-down box in their T 'n' T and Box Office Heavyweights rounds, and let a double-down opportunity pass by during the sitcom bosses round.
Although they didn't double-down on TV bosses or general knowledge, and were also duped by the T-themed round, Knock on Wood still had particularly good night, taking home a $10 Recess Room gift card AND a free appetizer for being the first team to correct figure out that The Phantom of the Opera was our Guess Who? dude of the night.
Highway Stars, who had a successful T 'n' T double-down, but not-so-successful sitcom bosses double-down, still went home with a $20 gift card. (My theory is that they didn't get first place because Home Team joined their team after being so tired of losing all the time. For all we know, he's probably hexed.)
It was, however, one hell of a good night for The Implication, who came in first place for the first time in what felt like forever. Once they earned 30 points just in the first two rounds, they practically had it made. They earned that $40 prize tonight -- kudos to you guys!
