One tie in a night is already plenty exciting. Heck, the game itself is exciting on its own already! But for there to be a tie in the top three and for there to be a tie in the Drinking Round, and for both ties to be between the same two teams...crazy! After naming an identical number of U.S. First Ladies, General Washingtons and Scratch the Corona, I'll Have a Bud sought to best each other by guessing how long President and Rosalynn Carter have been married. The Washingtons were closest to that total (of 73 years and 8 months!), and they also came out on top in the final tie to decide second place. O'Trivia Newton John comfortably found first place for the night and all the glories accorded such a lofty position.

Whether it was that the questions were extra challenging or that the teams were extra daring, there were many double attempts tonight but a fair amount of disappointment for those daring doers. This made for an exciting game though, where ranks went back and forth unpredictably. It also led to a tie breaker question to decide third place, which Cat's Pajamas claimed. Finishing above them was journeyman powerhouse O'Trivia Newton John. Nate & the Butts reigned supreme for the night, naming 28/33 2020 presidential candidates to win the Drinking Round and easily coasting into victory in the overall game.

With so many teams playing tonight, play was extra saucy and exciting due to all the double attempts! One such team was the Flux Capacitors, whose final double took them into the top three just in time, a perfect cherry on top to follow their Drinking Round win. Two teams in particular tussled back and forth for the entire game, so it was no surprise that Trashley Wards and O'Trivia Newton John found themselves at the top when all was done.
