It was another quiet night for trivia, as some of our regular teams were MIA. However, Los Osos Locos showed up ready to play, and one of the two birthday celebrations at the bar that night enthusiastically joined in on the fun.

Sadly, new team Dainty and the Dogs had to leave after round 5 due to some cranky children who were up past their bedtime, but promised to return in the future when they could leave the kids at home and enjoy a full night out.

It was a fairly quiet night at Stay Gold, but though our players were few, they came ready to puzzle out some trivia questions!

The Toasted Buns took a small but early lead, which they tenaciously held onto for most of the game. And then came round 7, which was all about NBA championships. The groans heard at that table reverberated throughout the bar. And while My Other Car Is A Trivia Team are not sports fans, their knowledge of NBA teams was far superior to Toasted Buns', catapulting them into the lead for a victory.

Fun fact: most of the trivia players at Stay Gold are not big sports fans. Hence, the groan heard throughout the place when the Olympics-themed picture round was announced!

It was overall a generally low-scoring night. Los Osos Locos and Toasted Buns started the night neck and neck, and pretty much stayed that way. Though in round 6, newcomers Flying Squirrels suddenly propelled themselves to within striking distance, having aced all the questions. If only they had gone for that double or nothing! At the end of that round, Los Osos Locos and Toasted Buns were tied at 26 each, with Flying Squirrels in striking distance at 20.

Speaking of double or nothing, Los Osos Locos went for it in round 7, thinking that their knowledge of box office success of Julia Roberts movies would propel them to victory over Toasted Buns. Unfortunately, to paraphrase a certain Indiana Jones movie, "they chose poorly." In the end, it was Toasted Buns that took home the victory, with Los Osos Locos in second and Flying Squirrels. whom it seems are not Julia Roberts devotees, a close third.
