Action at the Lion & Crown Pub was dominated by the Ninja Turtles Team, who showed up in strength, took the lead early in the first round and held onto it like a dog with a bone.  Jockeying for second place were Ship It! and Team Helos until Round 4 when The Byatches pulled ahead suddenly, upsetting the balance of power for the remainder of the evening.  (I guess those Byatches owe their score to Anna Kendrick…)  Once firmly in second place, Byatches held on until the end putting the third place contest between Ship It!  and Team Helos.  In the annals of contests, sometimes the excitement is not between first or second, but the claw and fang struggle for that coveted third place.  (“I gotta be in the winner’s circle or I’ll die!”)  Ship It! and Team Helos’ scores were tied until Round Seven!  Ship It! finally grabbed the third place honors in the very last round with some statistician tactician wizardry by getting more correct capital cities with population increases.  That’s the King Trivia Pub Quiz story for Thursday, June 1st,  2017 and I’m sticking to it!

The crowd at the Lion & Crown were laid back and friendly this last Thursday.  Repeat teams Rogue One and Ninja Turtles acquitted themselves very well as did new teams Ship It!, PBR2D2, Foot Clan and Bunco Babes.  Once things got going, the atmosphere got more enthusiastic.  My personal rendition of the Theme from Superman evoked smirks of mirth during Round 3 - So Fly; And, team Foot Clan raised the decibel level when they pulled ahead by Double or Nothing in Round 5 - Find the Connection.  (Somebody in that group must be a mustache aficionado!)  Looking forward to next week!
