I was glad to be back at Flatstick Pub after a week off and I was happy to see a room full of eager minds looking to test their trivia might!  Rounds tonight ranged from Stranger Things to that venerable wordsmith Dr Seuss.  Team Cheddar Traditioñal (my former friendly nemeses from Campus Brewing, RIP) got off to a strong in our first round with a successful double or nothing.  That lead was able to carry them through much of the game, but multiple teams game them a run for their money, including teams Arnold Palmer, Team Rocket, and Goon Platoon.  While first place was a near certainty, the battle for second and third place came down to our final round, which asked our teams about the stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the letters that used to adorn the Hollywood sign (in the Hollywood days of yore it said HOLLYWOODLAND).

In the end, Cheddar Traditioñal took the first place (as well as a $30 gift card for Flatstick Pub), Arnold Palmer took second place (and the $20 gift card), while Goon Platoon took third place (and the $10 gift card).  Come around on Tuesdays at 7:00 for drinks, food, mini golf, and (most importantly, if you ask me) trivia!

Thanks to all the teams that braved the intense 115 degree heat to make it out to our amazingly air-conditioned venue: Flat Stick Pub! As always there are dozens of amazing beer choices here and excellent tacos (as well as some other treats!)

It was a CLOSE game tonight with almost every team coming in first at one point or another. Our teams tonight were tested on their knowledge of "L"arge cities, prison movies, and SPACE!

In the end the Old Drunk Bastards ended up taking first (but only by 2 points!) With Teeth for Tajar taking second and Class of ‘16 taking 3rd. Every team was just a few points away from the next team which is my personal indicator that the competition was stiff!

Special mention to kittyWhiskers who didnt know that they were going to play until they sat too close to the trivia section!

Thanks to Flatstick Pub for providing, truly, one of the best trivia venues in town in the heart of DOCO! Good luck out there with the heat everyone!

It was a lively night of trivia on my second night at Flatstick Pub considering a Kendrick Lamar concert next door thwarted some teams’ plans to come play trivia (as well as my desire for a decent place to park, thanks Kendrick!).  Questions tonight ranged from famous Zeldas (both the video game Zelda and the wife of F. Scott) to Pixar movie villains.  Our teams all proved to be equally matched, with multiple teams finding themselves in the first place spot.  Team Lusty Lawyers were the first to find themselves with a multipoint lead after a successful double or nothing in the third round, but were overtaken by team EL in the second round.  After a successful double or nothing during round six, team EL firmly cemented their place as the front runners going into the final round.  In the end, our teams were asked about the colleges with the most Nobel laureates and the countries in Central America. 

When the dust settled, team El was able to hold onto their first place spot (and claimed a $30 gift card for their efforts) while team Betty Ford took second place (and a $20 gift card) and Plantz Partnerz took third place (as well as a $10 gift card).  Come around on Tuesdays at 7:00 for drinks, food, and trivia!
