QUIZ RECAP

It was a bummer of a night for Dodgers fans, but not for team MURDER!! who managed to successfully double or nothing late to pull ahead and scrape out a win against a strong showing from Thrillhouse and More Cheese, Less Pants!

After a late start - had to wait for that playoff game to end - a surprising number of large teams stuck around to play, so a big thanks to everyone who hung out late and gave it their trivia-best, albeit, maybe a slightly sleepier / drunker than usual best.

QUIZ RECAP

After waiting for the Yankees to trounce the Indians in a sportball game that eerily mirrored American history, 33 Taps got to a great night of trivia, with scores very close and the lead changing hands several times throughout the game!  We even ended with a dramatic tie for 3rd place, where two teams had to face off in a tie-breaker question, with one team knowing they'd walk away empty-handed, and the other would not only get a gift certificate, but a small swag bundle as well...

The winner of that tie-breaker ended up being Trashley Wards, who more closely guessed Kim Kardashian's earnings for last year (but still guessed less than they actually were... ugh).  Second place team Kneel Before Pence looked on gratefully, as they only beat the 3rd placers by ONE POINT.  Winners Trashley Wards, however, had a comfortable lead after a couple of successful double-or-nothings to take home the biggest gift certificate AND the largest pack of swag.

QUIZ RECAP

What an exciting night at 33 Taps filled with twists and turns!

The night began with eventual 3rd place finisher Bucket O' Kittenz rocking rounds 1 through 5. They doubled successfully in the first three rounds and only missed 1 question in round 5 ... going into Round 6 they had only missed one question all night! They seemed the clear winners to take it all.

However, Fear of Flying, which had faltered early by missing a Round 3 double, was able to double in Round 5 (good job figuring out that Tom Hiddleston movie) and leapfrog back up into contention.

The night went to Murder! though in an exciting finish. They were in strong contention all night. In Round 7, they finished with a score of 8 out of 10, having reached into the drunken haze of undergraduate days and recalled their Greek alphabet. Bucket O' Kittenz had a member of the team who studied Greek classics at Oxford. They attempted to double or nothing on that last round. But due to pesky Iota (they put Lambda instead), they fell short, leaving Murder! in first.

Now Iota will forever be scarred into our traumatized memories.

Congrats to all the winners, who received Rams and Bud Light swag! Until next week!
