It was a quite Wednesday this week as 4 teams battled in trivial pursuit. Our teams for the evening were Pitter Patter, Team Domestic Violence, Uno, and Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG.

In Round 1 our teams had a fairly confident start, our most commonly missed question asked what coffee brand coined the slogan "Good to the Last Drop". Most teams put Folgers, however the correct answer was Maxwell House. At the end of this first round Pitter Patter was in first place with 7 points, we had a tie for second between Team Domestic Violence and Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG each with 6 points, while Uno had earned 2 points in the round.

Round 2 was a bit tricky for all of our teams last night as they were asked to name the film or TV series that featured the waitresses who's pictures were being shown. The most amount of points earned in this round was 5 points to Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG.

In Round 3 teams were asked questions that would somehow relate to round things. Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG had decided to play their Double or Nothing for this round and unfortunately missed one of their answers, leaving them with no additional points. By this point Pitter Patter was holding on to first place now with 16 points. In second we had Team Domestic Violence with 14 points, in third Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG with 11 points, and in fourth was Uno now with 7 points.

In Round 4 our teams had to identify a mystery film. Many of them were stumped on this round, our first answer sheet wasn't brought up until after the third clue! Team Domestic Violence was able to earn 6 points in this round, while the rest of our teams got it after the fourth clue meaning they all got 4 points. The film they were trying to identify was The Dark Knight. After this round Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG and Uno both dropped out of the game.

In Round 5 players had to find the connection between the answers of questions 1-9 and state the commonality for answer 10. Team Domestic Violence got 7 answers correct while Pitter Patter earned 6 points. At the end of this round Team Domestic Violence was in first place with 27 points while Pitter Patter was just a touch behind with 26 points! Our drop out teams finished the game with Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG at 15 points and Uno at 11.

In Round 6 both of our teams chose to play their Double or Nothings after matching 2019 MLB All-Stars to their teams (at the time of the game). This worked in favor for both teams as they doubled their earned scores!

Our final round asked 2 questions of our teams; to name the 7 independent countries that end in -stan and the names of the good fairies from Sleeping Beauty. Pitter Patter was able to earn 6 points while Team Domestic Violence gained 5 extra points.

In the end Team Domestic Violence spread their message of anti-violence while beating all of the other teams and finished in first place with 54 points. Behind them was Pitter Patter with 52 points. And our dropouts at 15 and 11 to Patchy the Pirate & Friends/MPG and Uno respectively.

On August 28th at College Bar & Grill, 5 teams came face to face to test themselves and each other to see who knew the most. These teams included I'm Not Picky, Montucky, M+M Serve the Bartenders, Order From the Bar, and Sexy Kittens.

In Round 1 our teams challenged their general knowledge of things. After included points for registered teams Sexy Kittens were in first place with 7 points. Each of the teams were off of each other by just a single point. I'm Not Picky had 6, M+M Serve the Bartenders 5, Order From the Bar 4, and Montucky 3 points.

Round 2 asked the teams to identify which Carl or Karl was being shown in the pictures. I'm Not Picky got the highest score this round after only having 2 incorrect answers. Whereas team Montucky only earned 2 points for the round. Each of the other teams all earned 5 points for correctly identifying their C/Karls.

In Round 3 the theme referenced in the questions or answers were bones. Our teams did moderately well this round. Sexy Kittens chose to play their Double or Nothing for this round, they only had 3 answers written but got them all right and were able to earn 6 points for their team. At this point in the game the Sexy Kittens were in first place with 18 points, in second was I'm Not Picky with 17 points. In third we had M+M Serve the Bartenders with 13 points, behind them with 12 was Order from the Bar, and in fifth was Montucky with 9 points.

This week for Round 4 the teams were seeking to identify a mystery person. I'm Not Picky was able to guess correctly after the second clue which means they brought in 8 additional points for their team! Order From the Bar, M+M Serve the Bartenders, and Montucky figured out who they were after our third clue giving each of them 6 points, and the Sexy Kittens got it on our fourth clue for 4 points. The mystery person this week was Jesse Eisenburg.

For Round 5 our teams had to find the connecting theme in the first 9 answers of the round. We had 2 teams play their Double or Nothing this round, those teams were I'm Not Picky and Montucky. Unfortunately this did not benefit either team as they had both missed a few questions resulting in no points being earned for the whole round. At this point in the game however I'm Not Picky had worked their way into a tie for first place with Order From the Bar, each of them having a total of 25 points. In second were the Sexy Kittens who had 24 points, followed by M+M Serve the Bartenders with 21 points, and Montucky in fourth with 15 points. The connecting theme was that the answers contained a nautical term within them.

For Round 6 the teams had to match a talk show host sidekick to their main show host. I'm Not Picky managed to get every single match up correct earning 10 points for the team. Order From the Bar also did very well this round and only missed 1 of the match ups. Montucky was able to get 6 of the answers correct, M+M Serve the Bartenders earned 4 points, while the Sexy Kittens were unable to match up any of them correctly.

Round 7 asked the players to name 10 of Ben Affleck's highest domestic grossing films. Team M+M Serve the Bartenders did not turn in an answer sheet this round so they did not earn any points in this round. From what I can tell based on the answer sheet I'm Not Picky mistook Ben Stiller for Ben Affleck and therefore was not able to earn any additional points for this round. After adding scores for the pens that were retuned at the end of the game the scores were as follows: in fifth was M+M Serve the Bartenders at 25 points, fourth went to Sexy Kittens with 27 points, in third we had Montucky with 29 points, second place went to I'm Not Picky at 37 points, and Order From the Bar stole first place with 38 points.

Thank you to all the teams for coming out! Check in next week to see who wins the guts and glory.
