There was "Free Smoke" in the "Hot 'n Heavy" air. "Car Pie" was served and the "Darts" were flying so fast some folks had to go "Running with Caesars". "Mr. 'N'" stared down "Quiz Kid Donnie Smith" over "The Kids' Table" while under it scurried "Shitty Beatles". "Team M+J" and "The Betty's" made nice like "Sister Sister" doing some shots of "Tequila Mockingbirds"

could "Tequila Mockingbirds" overcome returning veterans "Foam the Love of God'? Was "Grossly Unprepared" going to defy their name? Would "Okay, well first of all" bring a challenge to the seasoned teams?

Yes! Yes to all! we had a raucous night punctuated with Tiramisu and fine beverages as teams racked up the points until only three could claim giftcards.

Great game tonight at Pineapple Hill. Four teams were perfect through the first 3 rds, with a cluster bomb of doubling all through the first 3 rounds, including all but 2 teams successful in rd 3. A 4-way tie for 1st place after round 4, which produced all but two 8s (the other two were 6s). Round 5 was the krytonite to the game, breaking up the 1st-place logjam and spreading out the scoring. The last 2 rds produced a few failed doubles, as teams looked to keep pace, which further spread out the scoring pattern.

Both Meta 4s and The Kids Table came from middle of the pack, with successful doubles in rds 6 & 7 to take 2nd and 3rd, respectively. Kids were fortunate that they turned in their pen, as they held 3rd by that 1 point over There's Always Next Week, who also successfully doubled in the last rd.

Our champions, Tequila Mockingbirds, nearly had a perfect game. In rd 4, they just missed by scoring on the second clue for 8 pts, and they chose not to double in round 5. With their bonus points for team number and turning in their pen, they missed a perfect game by 12 pts. What a treat to watch this play out.

Congrats to Tequila Mockingbirds!!
