This week made up for last week's slightly smaller crowd with an impressive turnout of 20 teams. These teams brought their A-game both in terms of trivia knowledge and enthusiasm. A special shoutout to the team Turbo Thots for cheering at almost everything throughout the night and really pumping up the atmosphere. Apparently that enthusiasm worked for them on a trivia level as well because the Turbo Thots got 3rd place this week. In second place we had Counter Intelligence, the team who has been in first place the last 2 weeks, and in first place this week was Cool Story Brew.

I did happen to notice an interesting correlation between the winners: the third place team had no dogs with them, the second place team had one dog with them, and the first place team had 2 dogs with them. In other words, I think the secret to trivia success is to bring your furry friends along! Even if it doesn't help you win, it will at least make me the Quizmaster happy! I hope for equal energy next week and even more dogs!

It was a less busy night than usual at Brouwerij West this week, perhaps because people have already done so much drinking this week as a part of the Memorial Day holiday weekend. One way or another the teams who did come out managed to not only keep up the drinking but also rack up some impressive scores in trivia. I was impressed by how dedicated each and every team was this week and enjoyed hearing the grumbling and spirited complaints when teams didn't know answers (mwahaha).

The winner this week for the second week in a row was Counter Intelligence who took the lead in Round 6 with an impressive double or nothing. In second place we had the BJ's who took an early lead, but lost first just before the end. In third place this week was the Mild Stallions, a frequent Brouwerij West victor. In general teams struggled with Round 7, which was about this last year's oscars, so I have to mention that Uncomfortably Dumb knocked it out of the park in Round 7 with a successful double or nothing that resulted in a rise from last place to 5th! All in all, the turnout this week may have been small, but these teams were mighty and filled the bar up with their brilliance!

Brouwerij West released a new line of beer cans this week on the same day as trivia, which lead to an especially crowded Wednesday evening game of trivia. We had several brand new teams as well as the usual familiar faces that love to come out and compete in a night of drinking and celebration. One of the most fascinating things about trivia this week wasn't that we had 5 teams that remained tied for first place for the first 3 rounds of the game. After these rounds one of the teams that was tied for first, Counter Intelligence busted out with a string of double or nothings. Counter Intelligence rocketed to the front of the pack and won the game with an impressive 15 point lead over our second place teams. This week two teams tied for second place, only further emphasizing the closeness of this game right up to the very end. 99 Problems but he Beer Ain't One were able to claim second in a tie breaker and Mocha Mix ended in third.

I appreciate how committed all teams were in to trying to win and how dedicated some teams were about using double or nothing this week. I have never seen so many teams going for double or nothing and it added to the already high energy atmosphere of Brouwerij West. I was so glad to be back this week after missing last week and I look forward to another exciting competition next week.
