- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 7:00pm
It was an epic nigth of very close trivia at Cactus Jack's tonight, featuring three returning teams with wins in their names!
73 Roadkill and Phil & the Buttercups started strong by playing a successful double or nothing in the General Knowledge round. All the Dicks also played a double or nothing, but it didn't work out for them this time around. The athlete themed Picture Round saw Phil & the Buttercups get a perfect score once again, putting them in first place with 73 Roadkill breathing down their necks.
In the Themed Round, All the Dicks tried to double or nothing again, but proved successful! Now all teams were in the 20-something points range. A very close game!
The Guess Who? round saw everyone correctly guess Andrew Garfield at the same time, earning each team 6 points an causing no movement on the leaderboard. The computer themed Find the Connection round saw another successful double or nothing from All the Dicks, putting them in a commanding first place. But 73 Roadkill was able to catch up by successfully playing double or nothing again in the best picture directors themed Matching Round.
With 73 Roadkill and All the Dicks two points away from each other in the standings and Phil & the Buttercups 12 points behind second place, they decided to try their hand at another double or nothing in the fruuit themed List Round, but to no avail. 73 Roadkill managed to earn one more point than All the Dicks on the final scoreboard, earning them first place and bragging rights, while All the Dicks also left a generous gift card from Cactus Jack's.
Hope to see y'all back next week!

It was a rousing night of King Trivia at Cactus Jack's on an unusually warm night in Colorado. Regular teams 73 Road Kill and Whiskeypedia came out, as well as one of the Dicks (unfortunately all could not make it) who joined forces with Road Kill for the evening. But new contenders, The Ginger Mice, were ready to make the evening even more competitive!
The Ginger Mice started strong as the only team to earn any points in the General Knowledge round. This put them in great position to maintain their lead after the Picture Round, where 73 Road Kill and Whiskeypedia found themselves in a tie for second. The Themed Round saw no major movement on the scoreboard, as The Ginger Mice maintained their lead and the other two teams stayed tied, and the Guess Where? round saw everyone chime in with the correct answer at the same time!
Despite the teams being fairly evenly matched, someone had to come out and take the win eventually. Whiskeypedia played a strategic Double or Nothing on the Find the Connection round giving them a strong first place, but 73 Road Kill responded with an equally strong Double or Nothing in the college football themed Matching Round.
Ultimately, 73 Road Kill took the first place title thanks to their knowledge of state capitals and Charles Dickens ghosts in the List Round, but a great time was had by all!
Hope to see everyone (and more!) back again next week.

It was a chilly night outside in Evergreen, CO, but inside Cactus Jack's it was a cozy, warm, and fun filled night of trivia.
Whiskeypedia came out with a strong lead early by successfully winning their double or nothing bet on the General Knowledge round. The Picture Round proved relatively easy for every team, with no movement in the standings after that round, but both 73 Road Kill and All the Dicks made a double or nothing bet in the school supply Themed Round and did not come out winners, earning Whiskeypedia an even stronger lead.
It took quite a few clues, but every team was able to correctly guess Ray Romano in the Guess Who round. The Find the Connection round saw another strong gain from Whiskeypedia, but the Matching Round saw both Whiskeypedia and 73 Road Kill win their double or nothing bet. While this kept Whiskeypedia in the lead, 73 Road Kill now had a solid points advantage over All the Dicks for 2nd place.
In the final List Round, every team showed solid knowledge of Wii Sports and American Idol, but none strong enough to oust Whiskeypedia from their top spot. They won the first place gift card, and 73 Road Kill left with their hard earned second place gift card.
Hope to see everyone back next week! It was a great group, and wonderful way to spend a night in during the cold nights in the mountains of Colorado.
