- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 8:00pm
What an incredible night for trivia! Rain might not be the best for LA drivers, but the clean new day brought out hungry quiz-heads like never before. Even better, this Quizmaster had a teammate to share in the ride: Casey! With our powers combined, this was destined to an epic throwdown.
The game started off with a bang as Algorithm & Blues (a top-tier team name) threw out a big double down. This soft-spoken-yet-mighty threesome came to Idle Hour to eat giant soft pretzels and win at trivia...and they'd already finished their pretzel.
Not to be outdone, a massive party of Play Fleetwood Mac (sorry, by the way. DJ Pandora was feeling the Stones tonight) had a team member for every style of trivia, including two birthday celebrations. While they didn't always have the right answer, they always had the right attitude.
Casey took round three and challenged the teams for a themed round of courtroom drama, and that might have been the catalyst needed to awaken two sleeping giants: CHICKEN NUGGETS and Booooooooobs (with a few more O's for good measure). These titans decided then and there that an epic showdown was due.
Enter the drinking round, which we at Idle Hour call the Shot Round (do we call it that? Is it just me?). With the Halloween spirit in the air, we asked the teams to guess how many pounds of candy were bought in America each year. If you guessed 600 million pounds, you ought to see your doctor and have that thing checked out. You would also be right. Booooooobs took the free booze and hoped to win it all.
When it came down to Round Seven, the big kahuna, it was a nailbiter. A single point separated our leaderboard, and it was clearly anyone's game. But when we announced that the teams needed to know about metal bands, CHICKEN NUGGETS roared with excitement. It seemed we had stumbled into their sector of knowledge.
But would it be enough?
When the dust settled, we had as close a contest as you could expect without going into a tie-breaker! Algorithm & Blues knocked it out with third, Boooooooobs brought in a respectable second, and newbie CHICKEN NUGGETS grabbed that brass ring and the grand prize!
Idle Hour is the place to be every Tuesday night at 8PM. While you might not always have the wonderful Casey backing up this humble QM, you'll always have great food, great people, and the greatest trivia game this side of Jeopardy.

There are few things as exciting as trivia night at Idle Hour. Perhaps skydiving while juggling chainsaws alongside angry bears, but you can't always do that on a Tuesday night! The room rumbled with energy as this Quizmaster approached the table, laptop in hand, ready to bare witness to questionable greatness.
The show began slowly, with single-digit scores and no risk takers. It was as if the Double or Nothing didn't exist! Would this prove to be a low scoring night for our heroic Idle Hour crew?
Oh no, reader. That was just Round One jitters. The points hit the proverbial fan just a few minutes later.
With a thunderous double down, Party Time entered the arena a round late—but without any fear. The other competitors sensed a shift in the wind, and soon every team took swing after epic swing, trying to max out their scores whenever possible.
While we did hit a bit of a slow patch with Round 4 (guess who is always a gamble), the Drinking Round reinvigorated our trivia titans.
Since today was National Beer Day, we asked the teams to guess the highest ABV of Snake Venom, the most potent beer in the world. While many were close, Otrivia Rodrigo took the shots with style. The answer, for any curious travelers, is a terrifying 67.5%.
Once we hit Round 5, our leader for the night cemented their position. Locking in with a ten point lead, it didn't seem possible to catch up...but no one told Trivia Newton John.
In Round Six, with all the cards on the table, teams went for broke and double down like there was no tomorrow. For a few, it was the nail in the coffin. For others, the boost they needed to get within striking distance of the leaderboard.
Finally, our Zillow question, a list to end all lists. Party time played it safe and secured an easy win with 73. It would take a mighty double to bring Trivia Newton John over the top, but they felt Snark Squad nipping at their heels. Rather than risk defeat, they took the second spot and the prize.
If you missed this incredible night, fret not! We throw down the trivia gauntlet every Tuesday night at 8PM!

Intensity mounted, ties came and went, and by the end we were all sweating. Thanks to the five thousand people that attended and the wonderful accommodations of Idle Hour!
We enjoyed a robust drinking round with incredible artistic renderings of the number 21, and what it meant to the players. (Inspired by this Tweet https://twitter.com/dantep__/status/1440183960508637185 and musings on the number 21).
Thanks for playing!!
