Six teams trudged through snow, ice, wind, and hail to enjoy King Trivia at The Oaks Tavern. Hang on. I'm being told it was 80 degrees and sunny. But the enjoying King Trivia part is correct!
No Means No, Father Pat took the early lead with a successful Double Or Nothing in the General Knowledge round and never looked back. They and Ceviche were the only teams to decode the Find the Connection round, leading Ceviche to second place. Rebels with a Cause aced the Matching Round on the way to third place. They also won the Drinking Round by correctly guessing the weight of my banana (I used my next morning's breakfast for the round. Stop thinking like that!).

As the Lakers, NHL playoffs, and 1993 World Series played in the televisions, The Oaks Tavern hosted its own knowledge-sport event as eight teams took part in tonight's King Trivia.
The Valley Girls went home with the top prize after answering the Guess Who? Round on the eight-point clue. Aww, Shucks! had a remarkable grasp of the Matching Round's subject of British slang and finished second. After losing a tiebreaker last time, Ceviche took sole possession of third place this week.
I apologize for not anointing our teams with sacred oils behind a screen. I'm afraid King Charles III used it all. Next coronation, I promise!

The rain outside held off until the end of tonight's King Trivia at The Oaks Tavern, but inside, the players rained answers down upon the Quizmaster. Remind me to never put it that way again.
Thin Lizzy took a commanding lead with a successful Double Or Nothing in the Find the Connection round and never looked back. Kim Makes Pizzas She Really Does finished in second place. The magical and mystical Tiebreaker was needed to determine third place between Doms Family and Ceviche. The Family came closest to the Target (the question was about the founding of Target, so this is a terrific joke!)
