Oh what a night for our official King Trivia on Zoom debut!

Thank you to all the lovely teams who joined -- we had a fabulous time spending Tuesday night all together.

Like I said --

We've missed seeing your faces,

We've missed hearing your smack talk,

and

We sure as heck have missed seeing those oh-so-close double-or-nothings that can make or break a win!

And we got plenty of that all back tonight, as we advanced in the trivia evolution revolution!

We danced through the decades in Round 2, then found that connection with our many Express-ive words in Round 3, and went back to school for Round 4.

Throughout the night, we had teams from Australia, Colorado, and Texas all joining a hearty group of us in California!

Thank you to all who played and come back next week!

Congratulations to our Five Raccoons in a Tuxedo who were Five Raccoons across three different time zones 🙂 Nice job walking away with the win tonight! Let's see who comes back to challenge you next week!

KING TRIVIA ON ZOOM PREVIEW GAME RECAP

We had a great night with our soft open sneak peek preview with our first-ever King Trivia on Zoom night featuring the Quizmasters in Quarantine Edition!

Everyone discovered just how much we've all had in common during quarantine -- our natural night owl tendencies from hosting in pubs before only elongating themselves even more as we've collectively lost track of the days, our affinity for group text threads as the saving grace in isolation, and of course a healthy shared love of Jackbox on Zoom with friends 🙂

Well, we all had a grand time with trivia together tonight and were treated to everything from a black-and-white cat on screen Zooming from home, a two Kermits backdrop, Colonel Popcorn holding down the fort without an Admiral Popcorn, and the strains of one player's girlfriend singing opera out loud and sounding just like a radio station!

The King of King Trivia, Josh came to join the fun too and when his kids arrived in the picture, it was clear that after a long day of virtual school for them, the best way to unwind was to play some Zoom trivia, too!

So happy we got to see everyone together -- and congrats to our top three teams, Ladies for China, Children of the KornMen, and Here we Go Again for showing that you not only know how to host trivia, you know how to win at trivia, too!

But honestly, everyone's a winner for being in the KT fam!
