A sizzling finale at the Fountainhead this week. Lead changes, a cautious double-or-nothing swerve, and a 10-point Guess Who round all propelled newcomers the Hufflepuffs to a first-time victory over perennial favorites Ask My Balls by a margin of one single point. Solo player Team Ram Rod made a very respectable showing, while three other teams couldn't hack it and fell by the wayside.

This week's Trivia showdown was one of the most intense nights of trivia I have ever hosted (that being said I've only hosted two nights of Trivia throughout my life so you should probably take that last statement with a grain of salt). At the end of round 6 it seemed that the two teams who would be competing for the 1st and 2nd place prizes would clearly be "Aaron Sucks" (on a side note I am a personal friend of the Aaron that this team name is referring to which I think gives me the necessary credentials to say that there is some truth to this) and "Team San Jose". The reason this seemed obvious is because at the end of round 6 "Aaron Sucks" had 46 points, and "Team San Jose" had 44 points; while "Ask My Balls" only had 36 points. But on the final round "Ask My Balls" took a risk and decided to use a double or nothing. When I first saw that this was their choice I felt nervous for them. Even one wrong answer would have meant that their team got ZERO points for the final round. But they managed to defy the odds and get all the questions in round seven correct, and because they used a double or nothing they managed to rake in 20 points at the last minute. Which just barely gave them the tittle of 1st place. Now even though there was only one formal "winner" at our trivia showdown everyone who came out to play trivia tonight went home with at least one piece of obscure information in their head that was not there when they left their home that morning, and because of that (to quote O'Shea Jackson) "it was a good day".

Why do we play trivia? I think it's so that we can strive to answer the tough questions of human existence. Questions such as "if none of us look attractive when we eat why do so many of us go out for dinner on first dates?". All the contestants in tonights trivia showdown showed a great amount of drive to answer these tough questions, but this night of trivia ended with victory for team Black Mamba. Although this night of trivia started out being all fun and games it ended with a tie breaker that would have induced a bad habit of nail biting in even the best of us. At the end of round 7 team All Transplants and team Avocado Girls both had a score of 21 points which put them both in 2nd place. This meant that we had to have a tie breaker to decide who would be taking home the 2nd place prize (because there are some times in life where saying "it's all tied up at fun to fun" just doesn't cut it). In the end team All Transplants surpassed team Avocado Girls to take home the second place prize. But all of our contestants went home knowing that they had spent their night with good friends, good food, and most importantly with great trivia questions.
