The third night of Channukah and we're still doing trivia. It might not be the Rock of Ages, but it still rocked! 9 teams threw themselves into the fray, burning that midnight oil, but would it last for all?
5 Succesful double-downs kicked off the night, Glengary Glen Ross missed it in round one, learning the hard way that double-downs are for closers. Staying bold, Glengary Glen Ross lead the charge in Round 2, and were able to redeem themselves (and score a higher round total anyway). 4 teams were able to double again in round 3, but round 4 had EVERYONE stumped until the 6 point clue, when EVERYONE got it. That's right, no team was left behind guessing who. After realizing the theme of round 5, most teams found answering the questions to be easier than opening a can of soda, er... pop, or was it Orange Coke? Anyway, double-downs abound In round 6, only one team would be able to secure doubling those points: There's always next week triumphed with their fifth and final double of the night, pushing their score total in round 6, over any challenger's final score - With Bonus Points! at 96 points for the night, if it's not a Pineapple Hill Record, it's gotta be darn close!

Ten Teams Tidily Trivia-ing Together! What fun! We gathered for a friendly game, but things got serious in round 2 when 4 teams doubled down successfully, some of them would pull into the lead with another in round 3, but round 4's Guess Who was moving too fast and all but the Oxymorons had to wait a little while before they figured out they were looking for the scarlet speedster!
Round 5 was brutal for some, as their double-down hopes were dashed with one misplaced answer, but others began a meteoric rise. Nasty Women, entering the second half with only 14 points, doubled successfully in rounds 5, 6, and 7 and ended up at the top of the heap for the first time in over two and a half years!

If there's one thing the patrons of Pineapple Hill Saloon are thankful for, it's Trivia!
15 teams with plenty of newcomers showed up this week for some home-again quizzing. The Kids' Table and Birthday Party Satan were hot out the gate with some General Knowledge doubles, but in round 2, the successful teams doubled! Double the double downs? We might have been on a trend, but Nixon led americans astray again in round 3 as an incorrect guess for Tricky Dick destroyed not one, but four teams' double dreams. Undeterred by tragedy, another four teams would attempt the 10 point clue in round 4, only to taste the bitter sting of defeat again! keeping the bracket shifting. With High scores and doubles flying left and right in the final three rounds, no one could guess how the points would shake out, but at the top of the heap turned out to be
The Kid's Table, We Got Nothing, and Tequila Mockingbirds in ascending order, with only a single point between second and first!
