QUIZ RECAP

Quizmaster Jo here, returning after a few weeks off. As usual, it was a fully packed house of trivia lovers at OB's. We started out with SIXTEEN teams, a record for this quizmaster.

The first round started a little shaky, with no team correctly answering every question -- and that set the tone for the rest of the night! Almost everyone guessed Sean Connery right in the Guess Who round, but almost nobody knew any J.K. Rowling books!

By the time the scores were added up, Raiders Redemption had a commanding first place win, but there was a three-way tie for third. Stalwart regulars The Wallets of El Segundo came closest to guessing the number of counties in the U.S. (but if I'm being honest, they were still wayyy off). ;-D

Pictured above - longtime regulars Misunderstood Killahz, who are moving on to a new location (I'm bitter about it but I wish them the best!) and Jonas Bros (who better not be going anywhere).

OB's Wed night game is jam packed, it was super fun to sub last night. Only ONE POINT separated the leaders, but THE WALLETS OF EL SEGUNDO nosed out DEFOREST STATION for the $40 first prize. ($20 is nothing to cry about Deforest!) SAND SECTION were the Cinderella team last night, they took off before they could take home their $10 3rd prize. Good news for PUSSY OVER PANCAKES, they weren't too proud to snatch it right up. SAND SECTION had their moment in the sun, they got to scarf the chili cheese fry round by knowing what year cheez whiz was invented. Knowledge iz POWER!

See you next time, OB's!

HELLO Trivia fans! What a night we had at OB's! Rain be damned... a more welcoming crowd or amazing and friendly staff a humble subbing Quizmaster could not have asked for!

The NINE, big, rowdy teams we had didn't let all this mushy Valentine's lovey dovey-ness get in the way of a fierce competition. Everyone knew their Hanna Barbera cartoon characters in Round 2 - which could have been the highest average scoring round until later, with some successful double down action that skewed those averages right out of the glistening ocean water across the street. BONUS: all these fun facts & stats confirmed by the official KING TRIVIA spreadsheet, created just for the occasion by yours truly (check her out in the pics.. eat it up, nerds!).

Now can we talk about the chilli cheese fries round? The incredibly creative candy conversation hearts speak for themselves, which is great as this QM is speechless over some of the choices...

There were tears, birthdays, and a couple broken hearts with unsuccessful doublings later in the game, but all in all a great night at OB's. Shout out to Jo for letting me fill in!
