King Trivia's big $10,000 Tournament of Champions is coming up this Saturday, and The Bad Explainers turned out for a final tune-up and ended up winning the night at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale this week.

An impressive late-game performance by So Good, It's Brad catapulted the team into second, despite stumbling in Round 1 with an errant "Hulk Hogan" answer that was completely out of left field.

Harriett & The Spies and Sister Act 2049 finished in a tie, with the Spies eking out the third place win in the tiebreaker. That tie - at 67 points - put the two teams just one point over frequent winners The Donner Party Train, who fell just one point short of the winner's circle.

Oooh! That's gotta sting! See y'all next week!

Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya?
It pours, man, it pours

Torrential rains in the Southland flooded out the official trivia competition area at Golden Road this week (aka the side yard), so we moved the game up to the warm and cozy upper seating area -- and packed the place full!

Unfazed by the move, our stalwart quizinators engaged in pitched battle, with The Donner Party Train emerging victorious by just one point! ONE POINT!

Trashley Wards came in a close second. How close? ONE POINT!! Just one point! Slackers!!

The Family Julesies  rounded out our top three finishers, with a fine effort at 76 points.

Now, you might ask, why do I declare The Julesies' 76 points to be "a fine effort," while labelling Trashley Wards as slackers for their 86-point effort!? Why? Why, you ask? Well, I'm, capricious...and unpredictable. Much like the weather (and recap commentary) in Southern California.

It Pours! MAN, it pours!! (See ya next week.)

What a way to ring in the New Year at Golden Road on Tuesday!  13 teams came out to show that their resolutions were to stomp the competition.  In the end it was The Bad Explainers who dominated the other players, with Trashley Wards not too terribly far behind.  Sister Act 2: The Mysterious Island handily took the drinking round by being able to guess the songs about years.  Congratulations to all the teams and happy new year!
