QUIZ RECAP
I was happy to see a mix of returning and new faces tonight at JJ Pfister for a festive night of trivia. Teams were grilled on topics from Denzel Washington movies to the names for various groups of animals (not sure why they had to do the pandas dirty by calling them an embarrassment). It was a close race from the start, with team Brain Drained taking the lead early on and hanging onto it until round when, team 3 Answer Sheets to the Win pulled ahead with a successful double or nothing and regulars The Faculty launched into second place with a strong showing. In the end, it came down to a round that asked our teams about the actors that had received an Oscar nominations for their work in the three Godfather movies (why wasn't Diane Keaton nominated?).
In the end, team 3 Answer Sheets to the Wind was able to hold onto the top spot of the night while The Faculty took second place again. Team Brained Drain claimed the elusive mystery bag of the night and the goodies that it contained. Come around on Thursdays at 6:30 for drinks, trivia, and a little escapism!

QUIZ RECAP
It was another busy night at JJ Pfister Distilling Company and the hot weather guaranteed me a lot of company indoors (except for a couple of teams that braved the heat on the patio). Our teams were grilled on questions that ranged from movie sequels to the Twilight series (thank you King Trivia for making me relive that part of my youth). Up until our fifth round, we had a back and forth between a number of teams, but in round five returning team The Faculty and newcomers Rye on a Rock both pulled off a double or nothing that broke them out of the pack. However, a follow up double or nothing during our sixth round put Rye on a Rock firmly in the first place position. It all came down to our list round, which asked our teams about the most popular water brands in the world.
In the end, Rye on a Rock were able to hold onto their first place spot while The Faculty (who allowed me to pay the dog tax with a pic of their dog Winter) took second place. Team O’Donnell won the mystery bag of the night and let me uncover the mystery with them. Come around on Thursdays at 6:30 for some trivia fun and delicious cocktails!

QUIZ RECAP
It was another busy trivia night at JJ Pfister Distilling Company and our teams were raring to go. Rounds tonight ranged from famous movie dogs to all things Oz (from the Wizard of Oz to the HBO series Oz to St Louis Cardinals player Ozzie Smith). Last week’s winners, Team Chad, got off to a strong start with a successful double or nothing in our first two rounds, but were overtaken by team Sherlock Homies during the sixth round with their own successful double or nothing. It all came down to our final round, which quizzed our intrepid teams on a topic that I am almost completely ignorant on: cryptocurrency (sounds like some fly by night BS if you ask me).
In the end, team Sherlock Homies took first place (a big step up from their previous second to last place spot) and won four tickets to the Best in Sac party (a value of $65 per ticket) while The Educators took second place. Team Birthday Girl in Grey won the elusive second to last place mystery bag and didn’t mind me hovering over their table to uncover the mystery. Come around on Thursdays at 6:30 for your chance to claim trivia victory (or just drink)!
