Trivia Night Recap: KABAM! Takes No Prisoners

Round One: KABAM! blasted onto the leaderboard, proving they know their General Knowledge like the back of their trivia-loving hands. They correctly identified that Mount Rushmore is not in Canada, while Our Group Chat Leaked 🙁 lost points trying to argue that Pluto should still be a planet. Science says no.

Round Two: KABAM! held strong in Sayings Involving Animals, breezing through phrases about cats, cows, and canaries. Ingenious Geniuses struggled, confidently answering that “letting the cat out of the bag” means you need a new cat. Meanwhile, Gryffindor spent most of the round wondering why there weren’t any hippogriff-related idioms.

Round Three: Dentistry and Ads was no match for KABAM!, who successfully remembered which toothpaste prevents cavities and which mouthwash makes you undateable if you don’t use it. Gryffindor, however, insisted that the best dental product is butterbeer, which is, in fact, not ADA-approved.

Round Four: The mystery thing? Die Hard. And while KABAM! kept their lead by quickly cracking the clues, the real battle came when Our Group Chat Leaked 🙁 tried to start the debate—is Die Hard a Christmas movie? After a brief shouting match, the ruling was final: NO. IT IS NOT. Just because there’s a Christmas tree doesn’t make it festive, folks.

Round Five: Find the Connection – Steak and Beef Preparations! KABAM! once again beefed up their lead, sizzling through this round with well-done answers. Meanwhile, Ingenious Geniuses tried to claim that “rare” means “hard to find” and “well-done” means “congratulations.” Gordon Ramsay wept.

Drinking Round: A shift in power! Our Group Chat Leaked 🙁 finally got their moment of glory during the Fruit by the Foot Challenge! With a combination of strategy, tongue power, and sheer desperation, they outpaced everyone in scarfing down ridiculous amounts of fruit-flavored tape. KABAM! lost this round—possibly for the first time all night—because they were too busy laughing to chew.

Round Six: Back to domination as KABAM! reclaimed their throne in the Matching Round About Math Symbols. They successfully paired “>” with “our score vs. everyone else’s,” while Gryffindor tried to convince the host that “π” should be accepted in dessert form. Respectable, but incorrect.

Round Seven: Original Justice League Members & A League of Their Own Teams! KABAM! secured their win, proving they know their superheroes and their women’s baseball history. Meanwhile, Ingenious Geniuses accidentally merged the two, confidently answering that Batman played third base for the Rockford Peaches.

Final Score? KABAM! with the landslide victory! Everyone else? Victors in heart, spirit, and snack-based endurance. Until next time, keep your cats in their bags, your steak medium-rare, and your action movies out of Christmas. 🎤 drops mic

See you next week!

QUIZ RECAP

Round One:

It was a three-way slugfest between There’s no crying in trivia, The B Sharps, and KABAM!—because nothing says “General Knowledge” like a fight for supremacy between a team with daddy issues, an acapella group named after a Simpsons episode, and something that sounds like an old-school Batman punch.

Round Two:

Same trio of juggernauts on top. The topic? Famous "knights". Sir Lancelot, Sir Mix-a-Lot, and Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Quiz all made appearances. There’s no crying in trivia, The B Sharps, and KABAM! continued their jousting match while the rest of the teams clung to their dignity like a squirrel with a single acorn in a thunderstorm.

Round Three:

Now it’s a one-team show as There’s no crying in trivia takes the lead! The topic was movies and/or sushi. Naturally, the team that thought “The Godfather Roll” was a real thing managed to edge out everyone else. Turns out their motto is, “If it’s raw, it’s probably right.”

Round Four:

Mystery person round: The answer was Lea Michele, and apparently, There’s no crying in trivia knew it right away. We’re not saying they’ve got a Broadway mole, but… yeah, they totally have a Broadway mole.

Round Five:

“Find the Connection” about games, and There’s no crying in trivia was back at it like a gamer trying to beat Elden Ring without taking a single hit. The connection was so obvious in hindsight, but like all great ideas, it only seemed that way after There’s no crying in trivia shouted, “Duh!”

Drinking Round:

Here’s where things went off the rails. KABAM! snagged victory in a question about gambling—because nothing gets you in the mood to win like having a drink in one hand and pure, unfiltered confidence in the other. They celebrated like they’d just hit a jackpot in Vegas, minus the sudden urge to pawn a family heirloom.

Round Six:

There’s no crying in trivia returned to dominance like a hungover champion rising from the ashes of the Drinking Round. This time, they crushed a matching round about school newspapers, proving once again that the nerds truly shall inherit the Earth.

Round Seven:

And finally, our tariff-loving Presidents to the North and South of us were no match for There’s no crying in trivia. Clearly, nothing boosts trivia brainpower quite like an obsessive knowledge of political history… or just dumb luck. Either way, they took home the win, leaving everyone else with nothing but wounded pride and a vague sense that they should maybe read a book sometime. Congrats to There’s no crying in trivia for taking the win and the bragging rights!

See you all next week!

QUIZ RECAP

Thirteen teams entered the trivia arena, but only one could emerge victorious. With brains sharpened, drinks flowing, and enough bad puns to make a dad blush, the trivia war began.

Round One: The Con-Quiz-tadors took an early lead, proving their General Knowledge was better than everyone else’s… which is like being the smartest person at a seminar for cardboard boxes, but hey, points are points!

Round Two: The B Sharps hit the high note with their encyclopedic knowledge of actors who played U.S. Presidents. Who knew their secret weapon was binge-watching political dramas and cheesy biopics?

Round Three: Still rolling like a hot potato, The B Sharps showed their expertise on Irish food. Turns out all that corned beef, cabbage, and questionable Guinness consumption paid off.

Round Four: The mystery person round had everyone sweating bullets, but The B Sharps cracked the code by guessing Mrs. Puff. If you didn’t see it coming, then clearly you haven’t spent enough time under the sea.

Round Five: In a stunning twist, KABAM! exploded onto the leaderboard by dominating the Find the Connection round about math terms. Their strategy? Counting on their fingers and whispering, “Please be multiple choice.”

Drinking Round: The Trivia Divas stole the show in the drinking game playing the card game Hi/Lo, proving that while they might not have all the answers, they definitely have all the shots. Someone hand them a trophy or at least some Gatorade.

Round Six: Back from their victory lap, KABAM! matched breeds to animals like a kid with a sticker book and too much caffeine. Their knowledge of random critters was downright unsettling.

Round Seven: Finally, KABAM! claimed the night with their dream knowledge. Whether it’s Freud, lucid dreaming, or just knowing the meaning of that nightmare where you show up to trivia naked, they had it all covered.

So, after seven rounds, one drinking game, and approximately 1,452 jokes about team names, KABAM! stood triumphant. As for the rest of the teams, they went home with memories, hangovers, and the knowledge that Mrs. Puff is, in fact, a certified legend.

Have a great St. Patty's Day, everyone...and see you next week!
