QUIZ RECAP

Tuesday night King Trivia at Bar Charlie was a bit more intimate, but no less riveting, with four teams competing this week. (I toyed with the idea of calling this week King Trivia...After Dark, but works better when whispered and it's pretty low bar to clear with the sun setting earlier and earlier)

The Smooth Hands Crew and Karen took an early lead in Round Two with a Double or Nothing, but they had The Flaming Farts 69, also hitting a Double or Nothing, nipping at their heels, trailing by only two points. The Mooksters had a noble showing, but it was The Hot Toddies and TFF69 who battled back and forth, coming close to surpassing The Smooth Hands Crew and Karen, but ultimately settled into 2nd & 3rd Place.

Still, any night where 75% of the competing teams walk away with a prize is pretty good.

See you next week- 7pm!

QUIZ RECAP

We had a real roller-coaster of quiz this week at Bar Charlie. The Smooth Hands Crew and Karen took an early lead in Round Two by hitting the Double or Nothing. It was short lived though, because in Round Three, QuizKnows, 11 points out of First Place, Double or Nothing-ed their way into Second Place, only be out Double or Nothing-ed (it's a verb now, I'm declaring it) by Soccer Moms who rocketed to First by ONE POINT! From there it was pretty much a three-way brawl with the game up for grabs going into the Final Round - shockingly, the 6 competing teams decided to buck the precedent set by the previous three weeks and NOT end the night with a tie-breaker! (but what they lacked in ties, they more than made up in cute pooches- I even managed to catch a picture of one!). In the end it was Soccer Moms taking First Place, with The Smooth Hands Crew and Karen, and QuizKnows following close behind for Second and Third, respectively. This week was indeed a roller coaster. Who knows what carnival ride next week will bring? (My money is on the Tilt-A-Whirl... I love the Tilt-A-Whirl)

QUIZ RECAP

Hello hello! Another tight game throughout most of Tuesday's quiz at Bar Charlie with only handful of points between the TEN TEAMS competing. After a tough Guess Who Round (with only one team not taking the -1-point hit), the gap started widening, but not by much. Coming into the final round we had 5 teams with only 6 points between them! At the end of the night Team #2 took 1st Place by only ONE POINT.

And we had ANOTHER TIE for 2nd Place between Always Bring Your Chuck and K2 (K2 ultimately won out- congrats). This time it was a normal two-way tie with one tie breaking round, unlike last week's three-way tie with two tie breaking rounds, which I'm sure people will be up in the mountains singing folk songs about for decades to come.

Two weeks and two ties? Perhaps this is destiny. Or a stunning coincidence. Find out if the trend continues next week, 7pm, at Bar Charlie!

OH! Also mountain folk song worthy...? Bar Charlie currently has Elysian pumpkin ale on draught- 'tis the season! ...or at lease a season.
