- PUB QUIZ—Wednesdays @ 7:00pm
Several new faces and unfamiliar teams took a crack at trivia this week, joining the weekly standbys for a tough game! Always gives me a kick to see fresh folks getting in on the action. And action there was!
In the end, it was That's A Tasty Burger who hit first place with 70 points, racking up two consecutive doubles and scoring some solid points earlier in the rounds. Next was Test Tickles with 65 points, grabbing those early and mid-game doubles to wind up near the top. In third was The Bar with 52 points, nabbing one double and scoring high throughout the game. But as The Bar can't win a prize, the gift card went to Cool Princess 500 with 35 points. Work hard, believe in your team, and it can happen for you, too.
Shout out to my old friend Steph who I haven't seen in years and appeared out of nowhere to warm this old Quizmaster's heart. It's a small world. Trivia brings people TOGETHER, folks. Tell your friends.

A roundly solid game this week, with steady scores and the occasional jab at big points. Eleven teams duked it out, and a few came within breathing distance of those big prizes.
In the end, it was Counter Intelligence who came away with first prize with 50 points. They only doubled in the first round; the rest of the game, they just put up steady points until the end. Second this week was That's A Tasty Burger! with 46 points, including a Round 2 double followed by steady points. In third came Say What? with 45 points, narrowly missing that second spot. They too only doubled in Round 1. It's not all about doubles all the time; those steady points will get you far, folks.
P.S. There's a picture of your humble Quizmaster up above because someone said I always looked nice in my spot before the barrels! Thanks, team member, for the compliment and the snapshot. They are some nice barrels.

It was a wild race to the finish this week! A wide-open start became an airtight middle which became a tiebreaker end. There were fifteen successful doubles, along with six successful 10-point guesses in Round 5. Count on y'all to make it a good game every week.
In the end The Bar came out on top with 74 points, but as they cannot win the prize, that $50 gift card went to Double That Shit!, right behind with 73 points. The next two teams faced a tiebreaker in which Wannabe Vegans narrowly beat out The Test Tickles, earning them the second- and third-place prizes respectively. Well done, teams!
Shout out to two members of The Bar: one, the hero who brought me the paper cutter (pictured above), and two, whoever drew the adorable Pokey on their Round 5 answer sheet. Good things.
