It was a night of goodbyes and new beginnings. QM Dave was on hand to pass on the torch to QM Gabbi.
As for the game itself, the teams were ready for competition - and competition there was. After Dutch painter Rembrandt made a mess of Round 1 with some early unsuccessful double-or-nothings (turns out Van Gogh did not paint The Night Watch), the teams came back with a vengeance in a Round 2 all about game shows. Skirts and Jerks took first place after a successful Round 2 double-or-nothing, followed closely by SaZu.
But the night was young. Round 3 brought a successful DoN from Alcoholocausts, pushing them into second place.
Nic Cage was no mystery to a lot of teams, as three teams got 10 points on Round 4. It was here that Alcoholocausts made it into first place - and never let up the rest of the night.
In the end, friendships were tested, life-long enemies were formed, and a new Quizmaster was warmly welcomed to the family.
The night ended with a traditional knighting ceremony where former QM Dave gave all the powers of the Quizmaster to Gabbi. She will carry the torch for ages to come.

Man, I have to start remembering to eat during the day. I was shaky all night, but that happens when it gets Bako hot and you're lacking nourishment. Still, the show went on.
Beer Googles won a tiebreaker to snatch third away from Flaming Toxic Trivia Monkeys at 36. Christine Says Holla took second with 44. Lords of Winterfell squeaked by with 46 to take home the gold.
Don't come out this Wednesday because Chuy's won't be open on the Fourth. Come back the following week, though, and feel free to come to Chuy's Rosedale to get your fix on Tuesday!

It was a packed house and we were cut off from the extra seating area. We all crammed in for a night of fun, though. We even had a team jump in for two rounds.
The Full Boyle came in third with 61. Alternative Facts fell victim to a failed double, but still took second with 65. Flaming Toxic Trivia Monkeys squeaked out a win with 66.
Come out next time. Don't make me come find you!
