If you still haven't shown up to Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills on Wednesday night for King Trivia, I question what could possibly be more important? Every week many teams gather to test their brain power and win gift certificates and shots, and you're missing out! This past Wednesday was no different!

For the Drinking Round, teams had to send up two players to play a game where they had to stack a pyramid of red Solo cups using only a rubber band between the two of them. They could not touch the Solo cup with their hands only with the rubber band to lift it and drop it onto the pyramid. The fastest team to do this would win the drinking round and round of shots for their team. With a blazingly fast time of 38.74 seconds Caterpillar Quitters won the drinking round! The next fastest team did it in 49.88 seconds so that was blazingly fast for sure! Amazing job!

Coming in third place after a tiebreaker question, was Alternative Facts who scored 68 points. Unfortunately for them, they did not know the year that Arnold Schwarzenegger was born and thus they lost the tiebreaker question. But, they didn't go home empty-handed as they won a $10 gift certificate back to the bar.

The winners of that tiebreaker question, guessing within two years of Arnold Schwarzenegger's correct birth year, was Hanky Panky, who also scored 68 points! They took home the $20 gift certificate! Woot woot!

And of course, our always challenging team of the Mighty Mighty Puffins continued their domination with another first-place finish! They scored 74 points to win the first place prize!!

See? I told you you're missing out! But don't fret, because we'll be back next Wednesday night right at the same place at the same time! See you there!

I think we can all agree, Wednesday nights are the perfect nights to play a game of King Trivia at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills! This Wednesday nights game was no different! We started a little later than normal due to a misplaced PA system, but it was found and the late start allowed more teams to join the fun!

It was 7-11 day but not one person in the bar had taken advantage of the free slurpee day at 7-Eleven! Shocking!

For the Drinking Round, each team competed in a head to head tournament-style game of Gaucho Ball! The object of the game, was to bounce your ping pong ball into your own cup and then stack that cup into the opponent's cup before they get their ping pong ball into their own. If your cup got stcked beforebyour ping pong ball was in, that player would be eliminated. The last person standing wins a round of shots! Well after playing 4 grueling rounds, The Best took the round of shots with the win!!!

Coming in third place, was team Diversity Poster who were only ten points behind our leaders! Can you guess who it is? More on that later...

Coming in second place was our celebrity named team, Don Glover Dong Lover who scored 60 points! So close to the leader... Any guesses?

With 63 points, the Mighty Mighty Puffins win first place, continuing their dominating performances with another victory!

All in all a solid performance by all teams! See you again next Wednesday night right back at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills!

And don't forget, register your team for The Office themed King Trivia on July 29th! Tickets go on sale Monday July 16th! Get some for your team before they sell out!!

While you were busy washing your hair on Wednesday night, we were at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills playing King Trivia and you are missing out on all the fun!

For the drinking round, each team had to send up a player to play. The object of the game was to be the fastest person to blow up three balloons and tie them into a knot without them popping. With a blazingly fast inflation speed and knot tying ability, the Think Tanks won the free round of shots!

Coming in 3rd place were, oddly enough, the team that last week anwered every question correctly, the Mighty Mighty Puffins. They scored only 64 points this week compared to the +100 point game the week before! It was still good enough to win them the $10 gift certificate. Watch for them to reach that number 1 spot again next week!

Coming in second place after leading until round 6, was team Trivia Guy is Cool. Maybe they earned some bribery points due to their name? Maaaayyyybbbeeeee... 😉 They had a phenomenal game and scored 72 points, just 6 behind the first place team, to take home a $20 gift certificate! Whoohooo!!!

And coming in first place scoring 78 points was team Score on a Bumble Recovery, took home the $30 gift certificate after taking the lead in round 6 and holding on in the final round!

And there you have it folks! King Trivia at Pickwick's Pub is taking a break for 4th of July, but we'll be back on the 11th for more King Trivia at Pickwick's Pub in Woodland Hills on Wednesday night! See you then!
