The May Gray failed to overshadow the bright minds and eager guests for tonight’s brilliant episode of KING TRIVIA! While a few TV shows may be ending, our adventure at Idle Hour never will!
23 teams joined together for a spirited journey through the world of questions and answers, and we were all too happy to lead them into the fray.

Round Two took our teams on a tour of the country’s National Parks. Quiz Kid stepped into an earlier and powerful lead.
Round Three’s theme wasn’t too favorable to Edgar Wright fans, but nonetheless Quiz Kid maintained their impressive lead.
Round Four saw Breakfast All Day and Pit Vipers jump ahead into the top spot, knocking Quiz Kid aside!
Our Drinking Round was a drawing contest, challenging our teams to come up with their best interpretation of “bad dog.” With a delightful twist on “50 shades of gray,” 80085 won the free shots.
Rounds Five we started horsing around with a Find the Connection riddle. While no one had the equestrian knowledge to take the whole derby, Pit Vipers managed to snag the top spot!
Round Six was all about Meryl Streep, which as it turns out was a group speciality for Spice Girls. With a risky double, they managed to jump into a slim lead.
Round Seven ended with a tie for second and third, and after a brief and congenial SUDDEN DEATH, we had our scores.
Our winners for the night were Spice Girls, Breakfast All Day and Pit Vipers.
