Wow - what a blast guest hosting at Barney's in Pasadena. Super group of people. Lots of regulars and a few newcomers, it was great meeting everyone during the evening.

The game was close for a LOT of the teams all the way thru till the end.

Purple Monkey Dishwasher bring in the first prize. Second went to Where Did Carlos Go? - aka Da Bears and third went to PhilosoRaptors- a group of 4 teachers celebrating only one more day of school before summer break!

The drinking round was 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but Donald Trump's nicknames will never hurt me' - in which the teams had to provide Donald Trump's favorite nicknames for 10 individuals. Purple Monkey Dishwasher won the round with 6 correct answers but gave the pitcher of beer to the last place team - Girls Night Out.

Barney's in Pasadena is a great place to come out and play trivia. Hope to be back again soon.

Smaller numbers does not mean less fun. We had seven teams that battled it out tonight, for the drinking round I had them name as many great houses (and house words) they could from Game of Thrones- a point for each house and house words. We had a tie so I had them guess how many total houses are known in the Game of Thrones world and they guessed so low! Da Bears beat out Pasadena Peeps but donated their pitcher to a lower points team. Always admirable. Who knew there were 463 houses ? Kudos to Pasadena Peeps for dominating and getting all the marshmallows correct in the last round.

Slower night for par here at Barney's. I'm getting better with everyone's names, individual players that is. In honor of the first academy awards being held on this date in 1929, I had them guess what the 12 categories were back then. Kudos to the Pasadena Peeps' satellite team, Mutual Admiration Society (who barely lost 1st place in the final round) for getting 7 out of 12 correct. The Second Cousins made a return tonight after several weeks off, but it was Da Bears who prevailed with a double down on the final round, with Purple Monkey Dishwasher taking third place. Had some fun with the music selections tonight, folks seemed to enjoy it as well.
