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.

Hello from the Big Top out in the Pandemic Pause Patio in front of the Recess Room! Big night inside the restaurant with the 'Free Whisky Tasting'. So us trivia kids were sent outside to play and we love it. Plus Roy is back all tanned and relaxed from a vacation. Life is good! 

Welcome back to our loyal returning players - Highway Star,  Ava's Minons, Tapped Out, Implication and Thirsty Pretzels. Welcome to our two new teams, 4 Free Whisky Tasters and Triv Laugh Love. 

Music in the Big Top was via my old school boom box which Keit gave an appropriate movie reference of 'No 2nd Floor' from 'Say Anything with John Cusack. Trivia is all around us!

Round 1 General Knowledge was 6 questions involving Stephen King, nonagon, Manhattan Project, The Oscars, Chicago and an European chocolate bar. 

Round 2 was 'Can You Dig It?' Picture Round  to name the actor portrayibg an archaelogist with 8 pictures of current and familiar actors. 

Round 3 was the Theme Round of 'One Smart Cookie" a round about our favorite circylar sweets. Who knew that Animal Crackers has 53 shape variations!

Round 4 was a Guess Who round involving a Californian actor who made self produced independent mixtapes which he now refers to as "decrepit Drake". His initials are D G. You have to be here to know. 

Round 5 for Find The Connection was a GREAT round of 9 clues and the 10th question seeking the connection. It involved gourds, a magician, a Welsh actress, a car, a novel character, Colin Farrell (be still my heart!)....

Round 6 handout of Riot Girls was match  the sing to the 90s woman-fronted band. I have seen 2 of the 10 bands listed and know of all but one of the bands. Music matters and it is an ever evolving playlist to keep in the know. Speaking of, I will be on hiatus soon for a few weeks helping out the music scene at The Hangar at the OC Fair  in hopes of seeing comic Jo Koy and Dwight Yoakim whom I helped with his tour merchandise back in the day. I am sure King Trivia will have an awesome sub and I will leave that person a suitcase with the quizmaster table light and the personalized team name table reserve signs. I will check in on the weekly recaps and I am optismistic the home teams will keep the trivia thirst going. 

Round 7 was the 'Tor-NATO' round to name 10 of the 13 countries that formed the North Atlantic Treaty  Alluance in 1949. 

Keep returning to our contactless high tech trivia fun where we have lots of laughs. I need to make Keit a tshirt that reads 'Release the question!'  Damn great idea! Love always, your beloved quizmistress of a master of ceremony. Play on and rock on.
