Round number three's "Musical Fruit" round was double down central for the majority of the teams tonight! It appears that this crowd really knows their bean associated trivia! That's my kind of people! After that double digit round, it got a little bit harder. Agatha Christie, in the guess who round, messed up everyone's mojo the rest of the night.  Only one team could spot the common bond, the hand out matching round was trickier than expected (matching artists to their less used surname), and the 7th round provided zero double downs. Scores were not as high as they've been in the past... but what is a score tell you anyways? I mean, besides the winner of the $75 bar credit.  It's only a number. Just like 35 is only a number, which is how many bathrooms are in the White House. At least the majority of teams ended up with more points than the President's bathrooms. Yay! Congratulations to us all!

It was hopping at Founders Ale House on Tuesday night! Or I should say, "Found HER 'Ale House'!" Get it? (giggle giggle). That was just a taste of the creative team names out there tonight. There were actually an abundance of creative names, including our winning team's: "Quiz Me Like One of Your French Girls."

The round-down:

No Outside Sources took an early lead that could have lasted longer had they doubled down in that first round. They got all of them correct but didn't want to risk the big zero.   Instead, Quiz Me..., Better Late, and Get Outta Here Ghost! all jumped ahead of No Outside Sources in the 2nd round. All three of those teams being the complete winner's circle.  The place winners all stayed within a few points of each other until Quiz Me... doubled down in the 5th, 6th, and 7th round! Completely leaving Better Late in the dust, Get Outta Here Ghost! also doubled down in the 6th and 7th to put themselves within 7 points of Quiz Me...  They couldn't quite catch them this time. Tune in next week to see if they get their revenge!

It was definitely good to be back at Founders after missing the previous week. Such a great, big group of people that don't rip on me too much when I mispronounce words and stuff.  Also, did you know that Founders has a HAPPY HOUR before and after trivia? Check out the picture if  you don't believe me! What a convenient coincidence! Come check it out with me next week!

A huge crowd came out for Trivia Night at Founders Ale House on Tuesday! A grand total of 20 teams started out the game, with over 12 teams staying until the final rounds. After a few "Wishy-Washy" questions stumped some teams during the Wishing and Hoping and Dreaming round, everyone stepped their game up in rounds 5, 6, and 7. Many of the top teams opted to Double or Nothing during Find The Connection, and the race was heated until the very end. None of the teams aced Round 7, but every point counted tonight, as the top three teams — Troop Beverly Hills Adjacent, Ancient Geezers and It Sounds Right — all ended up within one point of each other! Congrats on being fierce competitors and come back again for more awesome King Trivia nights at Founders Ale House!
