King Trivia took over The Federal for an incredible night a silly questions, even Boardwalk 11 drive up to play.
The first round had scores all over the board, with no one doubling, and the second round proved surprisingly challenging with only a few teams doubling. Sadly, Illuminati By Nature got a zero while NYE's Nurses and Purple Monkey both earned 16 points. Everyone seemed quite fluent in French for round 3 but only one team knew the answer to Guess Who by the 10 point clue... in fact quiet a few teams lost a point that round. The adorablly puppy themed Connection round lowered the guards of many teams only to throw them off with the Scale-house Rock handout.
With such an unpredictable game, Quizmaster Yael decided it was time for the drinking round. Teams were asked to identify two songs, and their artist, in a wild mashup. Saved by the Bell Biv Devoe was the first team to have 3 out of 4 pieces of information and earned themselves a drink.
By the end of the seventh round, Purple Monkey took second place behind NYE's Nurses.

The Federal was packed for the game and teams were eager to play on the new King Trivia app! Although it was a rough learning curve to get started, Gazpacho and The Wallflowers took an early lead doubling the first round. A few newer teams also doubled the first round, but weren't as fortunate, landing in the bottom. By round two the kinks were worked out and the competition really heated up.
After a torturous Find the Connection teams battled for the drinking round with "most unique item". The selection was narrowed down to a full bottle of shampoo, diamond cleaner, and a dog in a purse. Of course, the adorable pup won Saved by the Bell Biv Devoe a round of drinks.
A lot of teams confidently doubled the final round only to have two miss an answer. Gazpacho remained victorious with Bell Biv Devoe in second place. With the ease of the app, many teams vowed to compete again next week.

Although the weather outside was chilly, the competition was on fire at The Federal. Tables were packed as 11 teams competed for the first place. Gazpacho and Agents of the Zeitgiest took an early lead, doubling the first found, but they bobbed around the top 5 spots through the rest of the game.
After a diffficult "Guess Where" round, teams were invited to compete in the drinking round by guessing Song titles, Artists, and Years. The first team with the most correct answers were The Gapes of Ass who gleefully accepted their winnings.
The final round, with the baseball question, proved to be a challenge, but the winners of round one kept their lead and ended the game in first and second.
