What happens when 14 teams come to dinner and didn't know they needed to study for a test? A quiztastrophe in the making! Luckily, we had some truly S-teir guessers in the crowd tonight at Idle Hour. With an amazing group of energetic and hungry triviaphiles, it was bound to be an exciting time. 

Things started off slow as everyone learned the ropes of the new app, got to know their QM, and made a few wildly inventive spelling errors. It was enough to warm this Quizard's heart, but you don't earn points with affection. You earn them with right answers. 

Hunky Dory took a commanding lead early on, but their team couldn't quite put together some of the latter round answers, and suddenly the game grew tighter than my favorite shirt after I gained the Quarantine 15. As we entered Round 7, it was truly anyone's game. 

During the drinking round, a new group emerged from the middle of the pack as eager contestants. Singles might be hurting on the dating apps, but they were killing it on the trivia app as they came within swinging distance of the lead. 

Round 7 required a bit of geographical memory, but everyone knew their planet better than expected. We ended up with a single point ladder from first to second. Top dogs were Singles, followed by General Washingtons and I Meme, You Meme Me. 

As always, an amazing job by all the teams, and the entire Idle Hour crew. We can't for next week, so come on down and join the party.

An incredible opening to Trivia Time at Idle Hour. If you missed out, you might be regretting that decision for the rest of your life. Or at least until next Tuesday when we do it all over again. 

As the inaugural KT showdown for Idle Hour, and the return of in-person trivia for this QM, expectations were high. Add to that a MASSIVE birthday party eating up half the real estate in the bar, and you have a recipe for a quiz-tastic evening. 

Things opened up with a very tight race, with Oh Shit dominating the early game to set themselves apart from the pack. As the biggest team, they had the brainpower to match anyone else in the bar. But then came the hungry folks from EtFAH. They crushed round after round, eating away at the small lead until they finally broke into the front.

The drinking round arrived with a cultural question about Ramadan, which let one of the undercards reap a needed win. Then it was right back into the show for a photo finish.

When Round 7 came to an end, Oh Shit and EtFAH were tied for second with Paul Rudd is a DILF killing it for first. The tie breaker went to the hungry cannibals, but OS took home a strong 3rd. 

You don't want to miss out on the next show, so come on down to Idle Hour every Tuesday at 8PM for the best trivia in the Valley.
