QUIZ RECAP

How bout those questions tho?

I mean the ones in Round 3. That all ended in questions!

LOVED the attempts to answer "What is the original British title of the 'Where's Waldo?' franchise?"

We saw "Where's Walter?"

"Can You Find Him?"

"Where's Wallace?"

And my personal favorite -- "Where's Sanyee?"

Man I wish I coulda given you guys points for that, GOAL Regulators! You my fam!

Well, y'all still won anyways, since you could not be caught after that very successful Double Down for Find the Connection! You knew your kings well.

Just as I said as I was revealing the answers -- you need look no further than the pen or book in front of you to know "Trivia!"

LOL also how much did we love the Disney Princess round and how much did the Round 6 babies handout scare everyone off from having kids?

And how funny was it when I called Mark Dellham Sucks "Mark Pellham Sucks" because I was thinking of The Taking of Pellham 1, 2, 3 for some odd reason? I can't explain how my mind works. But I know y'all and love y'all!!

And since we only had four teams tonight, we got to embark on a fun storytelling adventure -- where reps from each team, Adam (Toby Rollers), Jackie (Mark Dellham Sucks), and Jasmine (Spicey Meat-a-Ball) went and told their different tales.

They had the floor to vent about something crazy or to recollect a funny experience -- and when all was said and done and the mic was passed round the circle, Jasmine won the Round of Drinks with her crazy ganja story that was like a happier version of Jackie's weed story!

I love it when we all get to know each other better!

So congrats to Jasmine and Spicey-Meat-a-Ball for winning the Drinking Round and Second Place of the night, and Toby Rollers for third, and Mark Dellham Sucks for making it a terrific trivia girls night out!

Make sure to have your costumes for Wednesday October 30 as we will have our costume contest for the Drinking Round!

I will miss y'all next week but can't wait to be back and at it before Halloween 🙂

Much much <3, Sanyee!

QUIZ RECAP

Hey -- turn that frown upside down!

The Dodgers may have lost (yet another attempt at a championship run for the Fall Classic) BUT you guys all won at trivia!

Handouts early on proved y'all knew your math -- and maybe this QM is glad she didn't have to announce the answers to that one because who knows how I would have translated those symbols out loud. You woulda known if I was referring to "line with squiggle over it"? Or "very pointy E"?

Anyways, a BIG BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY to PAUL and his crew who came to join us for the first time ever for trivia night and had loads of fun. They've only ever been to GOAL on weekends -- so they gonna start coming Wednesdays now, too 🙂 they left in a hearty third place, knowing their Presidents. And maybe would have had higher scoring if I hadn't over-optimistically told Paul the engineer he could double down on the math handout.

And I Lost My Virginity At... were the real troopers of the night, waiting out the long Dodgers game for our real game of the night. They nabbed Second Place!

GOAL, however, got (not my house but) The White House at the 10 point clue and also soldiered on with two successful double-downs for Scooby Dooby Doo and Presidents. What an eclectic mix of knowledge you guys certainly have!

My personal favorite parts of the night were when I Lost My Virginity At... asked what "the Apollo of dogs" meant -- wondering "like the spaceship?"

To which I conjectured, "perhaps referring to the Greek mythology of gods and goddesses"

To which I Googled, and discovered that the breed of dog is known as the Apollo of dogs for their "stately grace and courage."

Also I was as bad as Aidy Bryant laughing through a sketch when I had to read, "What 2006 Disney live-action film featured a 300-year-old bearded collie?"

Sorry, that just sounds way too adorable.

Let's all watch The Shaggy Dog next week!

Cuz we sure won't be watching any more Dodger games.

Oops. Sorry. Too soon?

The best way to get through pain in life, as this QM has learned early on in her life, is to laugh.

Here's a joke Azijanai told me while we were waiting --

"What's the spookiest thing in October? For Dodgers fans, trying to watch them survive a postseason game."

Double sorry -- ya QM's a G's fan who wanted to get us to trivia so...maybe she was cheering for the other team...but we're all friends here, no matter what colors we wear 🙂 And there were plentya National fans who ended the night on a high note.

That's what we love about GOAL -- we accept and embrace everyone.

And we are the champions, my friend.

QUIZ RECAP

We had an extremely joyful night at GOAL with our lovely regular teams -- and a very fun bonding time during our Survey Slam Drinking Round.

Here are some memorable facts we learned as I went from booth to booth, asking about what members of each team did over the weekend.

I Lost My Virginity At...: 1 bought a house in Beverly Hills and is moving there. (And also drinks on him next round, right???) and 1 bought a house in Beverlywood.

Mark Dellham Sucks: Maddie went to Seattle, Cameron drove into a Tesla window (eek!), and another team member totes smashed Sunday productivity levels by doing all his laundry and folding shirts and steaming work clothes.

Toby Rollers celebrated Rosh Hashanah!

Spicey Meat-a-Ball's Jasmine also did laundry, I heard an 8PM Saturday bedtime for 5AM golf Sunday, and their newest team member got a free ticket to see DeadMaus at the Palladium.

And GOAL Regulators regaled us of a story that was neither laundry nor steaming shirts nor 8pm bedtime-related. Our GOAL rep volunteered up a story of blacking out in Santa Monica, then riding that Ferris Wheel on the boardwalk. Very memorable way to close off September.

And me? What did I do? Well I went up to SF for my mom's birthday AND also celebrated Bruce Bochy's retirement as manager of the Giants (#thankuBoch) AND had amazing KBBQ.

Really phenomenal drinking round! Love it when we get to know each other!

Congrats to Toby Rollers' three-peat Drinking Round domination!

And the teams that looked closely enough for The Princess Bride to see that six finger hand silhouette and the couple above the crown.

And the teams that figured out the CLUBS for the connection. (Yes, it was hard. And yes, King Trivia got accused of trolling everyone with this round's connection.)

And congrats to GOAL for their win of the night, Mark Dellham Sucks coming in second, and Toby Rollers getting their swag for third!

Also congrats to me for making a great joke --

"What fictitious character's archrival is the Purple Pieman? Strawberry Shortcake. What? She has rivals? I thought she was friends with everyone...like me!"

Haha love the GOAL friends and fam!

As The Rembrandts sang in the BEST sitcom of all time (whose 25th anniversary I celebrated this past weekend too in a FRIENDS pop-up), I'll be there for you!
