- PUB QUIZ—Tuesdays @ 8:00pm
It was a great time, filled with REGISTERED TEAMS. Probably becasue they want a shot at $10,000 during this current season of League Play.
Round 1 was spectacular with teams scoring either 5 or 12 points, successful double-downs abound! Round 2 kept all teams within a point of eachother and round 3 repeated a double-down split with teams either missing one or successfully doubling-down! Round 4 saw a little trepidation, but "the Kid's Table" now gets to put Tombstone on their to-watch list, so that's fun.
Round 5 saw "Running with Caesars" leap into the lead being the only team to successfully double-down. A lead which they would hold through until the end.

4 teams doubling down in round 1 and again in round 2?! Insanity! It set the trend for this high-stakes game as "The Kid's Table" and "Tequila Mockingbirds" raced to the podium all game.
Round 4's Shirley Temple might has well have been a wash as almost every team scored either 10 or 8 points for that curly tap-dancer's clue biography.
Round 5 saw similarly high averages, but Round 6 spread the points, with four teams again doubling down, but this time for 20 points!
The day was won by "Tequila Mockingbirds" in first, and "The Kid's Table" in second, but a surprise round-7 double-down launched newcomers "S.O.B.s" to 3rd in the eleventh hour.

A perfect night? EVERY Team Registered? Quizmasters rejoice. The other way of looking at it is it totally cancels out the bonus points at the end, but hey, having them ensured a level playing field and also keeps the teams league records growing with the possibility for cool events like the Championship and the chance at $10,000!
Teams scored well in round 1, but there were 3 successful double-downs that immediately spread the pack.
Only 1 double down came in Round 1, but not any of the previously bold teams, and Can't Wake Me Up jumped into a lead they would maintain the rest of the game.
By Round 5, we had gained one more team (who also registered), although fared poorly in their debut Round, redeeming themselves with a successful double-down in Round 6.
Round 7 was in 4 parts, but the shattered dreams were uncountable. Of the 4 highest scoring teams in the final round, 3 would take the podium. "Can't Wake Me Up", There's Always Next Week, and The Kid's Table.
