Quizmaster Jim returned to his messy corner of Tubby Hook after a long and well deserved honeymoon just in time to ring in a new week of trivia with a new season of the NHL! Things don't look good early in the season for the New York Rangers, but trivia at Tubby Hook is always a good time whether early or late in the game and tonight was no exception with a mix of both crafty veterans and eager newcomers.
This game saw quite a few lead changes thanks to Double or Nothings that were both nailed and missed and it looked like the top 3 was pretty much locked up until Round 7. Barely falling short on their Double or Nothing gamble in naming 10 elements on the Periodic Table with only 6 letters in their name - "silica" is a compound, whereas "silicon" is an element - Welsh Not Irish saw the appropriately named Latecomer eek past by just 1 point to grab third place. Perhaps they'll be back next week with revenge on their minds...
