About The Recess Room

Answer Submission Form for The Recess Room

One fateful day three decades ago, five boys picked up a game of handball during school recess on a Fountain Valley playground. They grew up together, became life-long friends and pursued their own ambitions. But they shared a deep love for their hometown and dreamed of one day opening a restaurant together where they could share good food, good drinks and reminisce about good times. The Recess Room is their childhood dream come to life.

With the exception of a pretty lousy themed round, where the killjoy Quizmaster did not allow any names to JUST be "Oscar" or "Meyer," we had a fun, fast-paced game with lots of double-down opportunities.

Everyone excelled on purple people, child protagonists, and (double-down fails notwithstanding) FIFA countries. Everyone also did well on Round 4, where Guess Who? masters Thirsty Pretzels were the first to bring up Tyrion Lannister's name for a free appetizer, and Wood and Plenty were the last to figure him out by the 8-point clue.

Thirsty Pretzels held a solid third place ranking throughout the game, until they risked a double down on Round 7 and were betrayed by Uruguay. This meant they had to go head-to-head with Wood and Plenty to claim their third place prize, but the Woodies were significantly closer to guessing how many miles the Golden Gate Bridge ran.

The Implication held a solid lead up until Round 6, that is, until Ava's Minions doubled down with confidence on their authors. The Implication just could not catch up with so little time left, and they had to settle for the second place ranking. The rest of us all had to bend the knee to champions Ava's Minions, the true gods of tits and wine (beer?).
