- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 8:00pm
We had a high scoring game tonight with doubles a plenty as the top 3 teams all finished with a score over 80!
Hey Elon is that a tiny sub or are you just happy to see me were a team that took advantage of their chances at doubles, successfully pulling off 4, which also helped them recover from a -1 in round 4. However, they missed the most important double that they could've got in the last round with their perfect score. If they doubled in round 7, they would've won the game, but instead they finish with the very respectable score of 82, taking the bronze!
Gin & Jews didn't know it at the time, but it would be round 1 & 2 that would cost them the game, matching the 1st place team, Team Mom, with the same exact scores in every other round (including successful doubles in rounds 3, 5, & 7). Team Mom got 3 more points in the 1st 2 rounds & that's as many points as Team Mom would win by. Gin & jews take the silver! & Team Mom takes the gold & are the champions of the night!

Last night's show at FOUNDERS was quite an education. I've never handled a show that size before - 24 teams started and 19 finished! But it was an intense night as everyone knew they stuff in our America quiz!
Like usual, old favorites at Founders swept the podium. Putin on the Ritz took an easy win but 2nd and 3rd were a toss up - with Tequila Mockingbird and Queer and Here taking place respectively.

Tonight we had a good variety in rounds: rounds where most teams doubled (round 2 & round 6) along with extremely tough rounds (rounds 1 & 3). One team stayed strong through it all, but more on them later.
Let's begin with The Mighty Baanchods, who pounced on the opportunity to double in the easier rounds, but missed the opportunity to double in both rounds 5 & 7 (the only team to get a perfect score in round 7). If they doubled in either of those rounds, the story would be different, but as it stands, they finish 3rd & take the bronze!
CSU Dominguez Pillz $5 started the game strong comparatively in a difficult round 1 & they go on to double in both of the easier rounds. They also impressively are the only team to get the full 10 points in round 4, which helped them a great deal as they beat The Mighty Baanchods by one point & take the silver!
Gin & Jews never faltered & had impressive scores even in the harder rounds. They double in both the easier rounds & could've done so in round 5 as well with a perfect score, but they didn't need it as they take victory by 3 points, take the gold, & become the champions of the night!
