QUIZ RECAP
MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!
... and also trivia.
Gridiron conflict tearing the hearts of angelinos: two LA favourites, our former representatives in the Raiders and our returning team the Rams, once again making LA their home, attention was already split. So why not add in some trivia?
Given that halftime was just barely commencing the game started silently, with rounds 2 and 6 circulating under the radar as everyone took a breather and let their heart beats settle to a calm 117 bpm.
When the dust began to settle in the 4th quarter, we all learned that 4 teams successfully doubled on the Pictures, but the worksheet was giving a little more trouble, and although there were a few high scores, there were no perfects, and not even one attempted double down.
A few more rounds of trivia vocalized before everyone needed to go home, but the scores were clear enough to let some prizes fly, with only one unregistered team on the podium (see? Those points count!)

Paddington Kills - although a bit timid on the double or nothing strategy - pulled the tool out just a enough times for a solid 1st place win. Team at the End of the Bar jumped into 2nd place with a couple of double or nothing successes at the end of the game. The battle for third was fierce with every remaining team in the hunt in Round 7. Trojan Warriors successfully double or nothing'd in the last round to take 3rd place. Great night!

QUIZ RECAP
I got a great send off from Rocco's last night by having one of the closest games we've had in a long time! I'll be gone for about three weeks, but the great teams played a tight game were there wasn't a winner until the very end. As always, it came down to two stalwarts in gold and silver contention, with those delightful PADDINGTON KILLS chaps taking the top spot and AREA 51 finally placing and walking away with a gift certificate of their own. Bronze went to some newcomers and JUST HAPPY TO BE HERE obviously were and they took their $20 certificate happily.
Thanks again Rocco's for a wild summer. I'll see ya again in a few weeks when I'm back from my travels!
