It was great to be back at JJ Pfister Distilling Company on this unseasonably warm March evening. In a repeat of last week, we had some incredibly evenly matched teams. Questions ranged from our favorite masked characters to College Bowl games (major respect to our teams in this category since I’m useless in the area of sports). Everything was neck and neck until round six when team Funco played a successful double or nothing, launching them into a comfortable first place and leaving the rest of our teams to duke it out for second place.
Teams Funco and Drunken Puppers walked away with gift certificates for JJ Pfister. Come around on Thursdays at 6:30 for delicious food, tasty drinks, and the chance to claim the trivia crown of the week!

It was our biggest night of the year (so far) at JJ Pfister and we had some of the most evenly matched teams I’ve ever seen. I was happy to see a number of friendly returning faces in the crowd tonight! Team Forest managed to carve out a small lead for themselves early on in the night, but several teams were hot on their heals throughout. Questions ranged from a fruit-themed round to TV end credits (kudos to our one team that figured out the end credits to the early nineties classic Where in the World is Carmen San Diego). Going into our final round, there were seven teams within five points of each other so it was a real nail-biter. Our last round tested the geography buffs in the crowd tonight with a question about the UN member states with the letter “Z” in their name. It came out to a tiebreaker round between teams Forest and Cobra Kai. Team Forest ultimately clinched the win, coming closer to determining the global market value of hummus (of all things).
Teams Forest (who introduced me to the team name inspiration, one of the cutest babies in history) and Cobra Kai both walked away with gift vouchers for JJ Pfister! Come around on Thursdays at 6:30 to eat, drink, and be merry!

It was yet another night of exciting trivia at JJ Pfister Distilling Company and our teams were PUMPED. As a child of the 90s, I took personal offense at the decision to call a 90s toy themed round “Oldplay.” I was also forced to relive my experiences with my malfunctioning Furby that wouldn’t eat and the shin-bruising torture device/toy Skip It. Team Here for the Beer (who didn’t seem disappointed at the lack of beer at JJ Pfister, because who needs beer when you have delicious cocktails) came out to an early lead after round two, but team Buzzed came up from behind in round five after a successful double or nothing. It all came down to our final round, which asked our teams to name the Beach Boys’ biggest hits (one of my favorite topics ever, I mean it this time). Team Buzzed came out victorious in the end, able to name more Beach Boys songs.
Teams Buzzed and Here for the Beer left with prizes for JJ Pfister! Don’t miss out on trivia night at JJ Pfister Distillery – every Thursday at 6:30!
