Located in the heart of the West 3rd St. corridor, between Orlando and Sweetzer. Goal Sports Cafe was established to provide a great sports experience. With good people, great food and drinks and an entertainment system second only to being at the game.
According to one team, this was the HARDEST trivia they've ever had to do! That means it was a tough game, but teams really pulled out the wins in every single round!
Round one stumped a lot of people with asking what animal was Jeremiah in the song "Joy to the World." I saw answers like dog, cat and mouse, but the answer of course was Bull Dog. Treated everyone to a version of this line sung by me, something I'm sure they would rather have left out!
Round two was my FAVORITE ROUND, as a musical theater nerd and fan of bad cinema, asking to name the actors associated with Cats was a dream. Teams did amazing with Mark Dellham Sucks, Baby Yoda 2.0, Winners, I Lost My Virginity At..., AND Epstein Didn't Kill Himself doubling with 16 points!
Our drinking round asked participants to identify the age of the oldest tree, a bristlecone which is an impressive 4,845 years old. Winners took the *win* and got themselves a free round and a little more knowledge about trees! They also took first place with 75 points with I Lost My Virginity At... with 72 and Mark Dellham Sucks with 64.
In the end, this game inspired the teams to read more with Round 6 and eat more fruits with Round 7. As a whole, I think King Trivia is doing its part to promote a happy and healthy 2020. Thanks for coming everyone, hope you had a great time!

What a fantastic night of trivia we had at GOAL with two new teams joining our tried and true regulars -- and giving them all a run for the W!
Ginko 1997 doubled down early on with the first round and could not be caught the rest of the night, though I Lost My Virginity At... came super close especially when they narrowed the deficit to 3 points behind Ginko 1997.
While the Round 6 handout stumped just about everyone except The Great Quinz?n, the different systems of the body were also hard to decipher as GOAL Regulators, The Great Quinz?n, and I Lost My Virginity At... all doubled down but missed 1-4 of the systems! Ginko 1997 knew all of them and didn't even need a double down to win the night!
Fun incorrect answers of the night --
"What is the official state sport of North Carolina?"
-catfishing
"What is the Spanish name of a girl's 15th birthday celebration?"
-celebratata cinco
And shoutout to Apple Bottom Jeans and Linkin Park as good deductions for the New York themed round!
Props to I Lost My Virginity At... for being a three-male team who was the only team to get Selena Gomez at the ten-point clue!
The rest of my teams? Well, you had to lose her to love her, eh? A little fun pun from her latest single if you've not heard it yet!
Huge congrats to new team The Great Quinz?n for winning the holiday-themed Drinking Round with five questions from Survey Slam that I recycled from last night!
Still love how what happened yesterday night at The Famous happened here too as every team put a different quote for "What's the first quote from Elf that you can think of?"
-"Dad, I love you, I love you, I love you!"
-"The yellow ones don't stop!"
-"You're not Santa!"
-"Santa! I Know Him!"
You can all just point to me when you see me walking down Third Street and yell, "Sanyee! I know her!" 🙂 🙂 🙂
Happy happy holidays, everyone! Sending so much love to all of y'all from now into the New Year!

What a wildly festive night we had at trivia this Wednesday as we had four phenomenal teams all joining in on the fun.
XYZ started out as one member, then recruited another member and soon enlisted two others by Round Six and even got some lifeline help from another trio who popped into the bar.
I Lost My Virginity At... were our tried and true regulars who were riding the high of being told that they are very close to the Top 100 for qualifying for League Play!
So everyone get your tickets now for the Tournament of Champions to potentially come cheer on I Lost My Virginity At...
One of my other new teams included The Salty Pretzels whose members were regulars at GOAL on every night except Wednesday. I first encountered them in mid-October when Paul was coming by to celebrate his birthday and he and Teddy got introduced to trivia for the first time on a Wednesday and said they'd be back!
Well, two months later, they made good on their promise and they did very, very well!
And my other new team of the night was Trump is Putin's Whore who gave such a strong showing for being a team of two against a team of ten, team of six, and team of a snowballing four-six.
Despite how Trump is Putin's Whore noted they knew neither the LEGO Disney characters or 90s theme show songs, they sure knew their electoral college states -- and knew when to double down at the right time!
They ended up winning by one point!!
And they were charging their phone with me the whole time so we know they were genuine history and political buffs!
And they can't wait to come back and defend their championship title soon.
Other memorable parts of the night that were filled with laughs --
"What unusual form of payment did the University of Alaska Anchorage accept for parking fines in 2019?"
-salmon
-bitcoin, cryptocurrency
What famous German Shepherd was rescued during WWI from a bombed German kennel?
You guys guessed very creative and clever names:
-Hans
-Schnitzel Van Bismarck
-War Dog
Right answer -- Rin Tin Tin!
And the same with which '80s cartoon followed the adventures of Lion-O and Cheetara?
Clever (though incorrect) guesses:
-Cat Dog
-Cat-Woman <3 Dog Man
-Tom & Jerry
Right answer -- Thundercats!
And for Round 4, both Trump is Putin's Whore and XYZ guessed David Hasselhoff while my Salty Pretzels guessed Arsenio Hall and XYZ's new recruit tried to guess Eddie Murphy even after their team had turned in their sheet!
I Lost My Virginity At... got Martin Lawrence right though!
They also won the Drinking Round, guessing three of the five quotes I named from Christmas movies.
While some of y'all just put down random Christmas movies like A Christmas Carol, Frosty the Snowman, and Miracle on 34th Street.
I can't wait to see everyone next week to deliver Q's 6-10 of the holiday-themed drinking round where I name more quotes from Christmas movies! So brush up on those movies now 🙂
And can we talk about GOAL's newest holiday decorations -- Ally made the place even more beautiful than usual!
