Wise Jedi master Yoda was the fictional "Guess Who" character of the night. The connection in round five was all established record labels. The contestants were asked to match the movie line to the baddie villain who quoted it . In the final round, the teams were told to list off the six South American Countries below the Equator and five of the six mattress sizes sold by Casper mattress company, not the friendly ghost. Now, for the evenings winning teams.
Let's Go Trivia scored second-to-last place with 46 points. There was a tie between teams A Fun Team Name and The Droids You're Looking For. Even though both teams both went over on the tie breaking question, one team went over a smidge bit less.
