QUIZ RECAP

It's been too long, Founders Ale House! The Fourth of July really got in the way of our Quiz time together! We really made up for lost time tonight, though!

Interrobang Gang! (pictured first) fell right back into their groove tonight and kept their reign as the Founders Ale House Champions! They had some pressure, however, as several teams doubled their way into contention, including But His Emails... (pictured 2nd) and Torian's Groupies (pictured 3rd). Ultimately, it came down to how many best picture Oscar winners they could match to their winning year.  But His Emails... could only get 6 when Interrobang Gang! got 8.  Both teams knew the same number of populous countries in Africa, for the last round, which helped Interrobang Gang! keep their crown for another week.

I'm glad to see everyone back after the holiday! Hope to see you next week!

QUIZ RECAP

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!

QUIZ RECAP

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!
