QUIZ RECAP

It was a full house at Danza Del Sol, and piping with excitement!

We had 10 amazingly smart teams, which included Tiamat, Burnett's Rule, Goslee Clan, Irene and Cindy, Wines Well With Others, That's What She Said, Rainbow Mafia, Trivia Newton John, Tunes, and It's Fun In Here.

Many teams shot for the Double or Nothing throughout the rounds, and that helped boost the scores of the winning teams. On Round #6, the handout round, almost every team was able to match all the slogans with the restaurant chain!

In the end, Tunes took home the trophy (and some delicious wine) by taking first place with 75 points. Wine's Well With Others came in second place with 59 points, and Burnett's Rule took third with 54 points.

It was a fun night of trivia, and I can't wait to see you all back at Danza Del Sol next week!

QUIZ RECAP

The second week of King Trivia at Danza Del Sol Winery went fantastic with 9 teams of 33 players plus the 9 staff.  Great to see the returning teams of Tunes with Bill, Betsy, Stew, Alex, Joe, Ylda, Nick., the Fratellis and Irish. Welcome to all the new teams of Space Cadets with Richard, Deborah, Devin and Tom. team Wines well with others with Phil, Karen, Eric, Evan and Christine.  Team Wine-O's -Sam, Haley, Devin, Damon, Becca and Sarah came straight from work so they left a wee bit before the end. We hope we see this fun group again.

Team  Las Tortas from Rancho Cucamonga were Britney, Sandy, Destiny and Janae. Aerospace were trippy and thrilling with their challenge to being the top three and they made it to second place. 

We stayed in the Tasting Room with the pizza food truck which was delicious!  We used the trivia scorebooklets so  we played old school which went well.  I handed out little easels and markers for teams to create their table reservation signs for future trivia nights. 

Here is a recap of these emails rounds. 

Round 1 was General Knowledge of 6 questions involving Halloween Candy, Toni Morrison, Jennifer Aniston, Michael Keaton, Powell's Books, 2021 NFL Draft. 

Round 2 was the Picture Round entitled "If You Ain't First, You're Last" to identify the movies starring Will Ferrel. The titles involved skaters, race car stars, school, relatives, TV news, a bizarre fashion idol and one of Santa's best friends. You solve this puzzle. You have to be here to get the answers. 🙂

Round 3 was "The Dark Knight" roundabout vigilantes and knighthoods. The 6 questions involved the Queen, Oscars, Jack Ruby, MartinLawrence, The Curse Of Capistrano, the House of Commons, and November 5th in the UK and Northern Ireland. 

Round 4 is the Guess Who round involving clues of a famous sexy talented Puerto Rican performer. 

Round 5 for Find The Connection was 9 questions of clues with the10th question tying it together. The 9 questions involved a lucrative singer, Pike Place Market, an Egyptian River, Scooby Doo, "95 Theses", Monsters Inc, woman centric music festival,whooping leggy wetland birds, Kelsey Grammer and a well known TV series. 

Round 6 handout was Thanks for All the Fish to match the 'thank you' to the language. I got a volunteer for the group to do the translations. Tom from Team Irish did an excellent job to make Meghan proud. 

Round 7 was entitled Statuettes which was the last round with one question involving  the Best Actress since 2011. 

Thanks again to the owners and staff of Danza Del Sol Winery for being such great hosts. See you all next Friday night. 

Congratulations to Team Tunes for posing with their custom repurposed baseball trophy #1 aka King Trivia trophy!

QUIZ RECAP

Welcome to the first time for King Trivia at the winery. What a wild night it was! Imagine a room of 39 players plus 9 staff of trivia virgins.  The whole purpose of trivia is to pretend like it is 1987 where people talked more and we talked up a storm of energy!  

Thank you to the winery staff of Walter Carter, Nathalie, Kylie, Cain, Candice, Nick, KC, Sara Tyler, Nikki and Taylor for being there for us. The food truck will make its appearance next week when we use the clubhouse instead of the tasting room. The players enjoyed the yummy cheese, meat, and cracker trays with their wine while playing. 

The winning team was the six players of Hemet is Heaven with Danny, Brie, Paco, Brenden, Zack, and Matt. Good going with the double or nothing rounds.

Second place went to Team Lady Boner who were inspired with their name by the King Trivia logo of the King riding a microphone. They adapted it for their royal team with the British player. Such a noble nod to the monarchy. What would the Queen say about it? 🙂 The royal subjects on this team were Ladies Sarah and Karen with Ian, Jeremy. Jason and Steven. 

Third Place went to Team TasiaToons with Betsy, Will, Joe and Ylda. Enjoy your award-winning bottle of wine! 

We had a double birthday couple in the tasting room with Team Scary Jammies with Mary and Scott. It sounded comically lovely with our rendition of Happy Birthday to them! On their team is Sammy and Josh. 

Team CopperPot is Cynthia and her Tiki mug-loving hubby Ray. I worked on trying to convince Cynthia that she needs to celebrate her bday next summer at Tiki Oasis in San Diego so she can appreciate her hubby's mug collection. 

Team Us was so cute as they tried to figure out the Guess Who one answer part of Round 4. It was like being on a blind date with 39 dates. We laughed at ourselves to keep everyone on the same page. 

The staff played for two rounds but then realized that trivia night means more wine to pour to keep the players refreshed. Team Marklar was Jenna, Candace, and Tim front and center. Team Madrona (like the wine) was dressed stylishly in the back row. Thanks, Nicole and Crystal for joining us. Hope we see you again next week.

King Trivia is hiring and we need locals out in your area. I have been a trivia fan for over 15 years with several years as a quizmaster. It is awesome.
