A hot night of King Trivia at The Oaks Tavern tonight thanks to the intense competition and an outside temperature of 97 degrees Fahrenheit at game time.

There were several lead changes throughout the evening. People say I'm suck took the early lead after a successful Double Or Nothing in Round 1. The Real Housewives of Calle Ocho claimed the top spot thanks to their knowledge of classic paintings in Round 2. But Where Is the Fire? grabbed the final lead with successful Doubles in Rounds 5 and 6, hanging on even after four teams earned the full 20 points in Round 7.

Quiz in my pants won the Drinking Round by coming closest to guessing the DVD in my bag was Bridesmaids (2011).

Does David know about Giselle's eight secret daughters? Can Ezekiel find that donut he lost in the bathroom? Find out next week on an all-new episode of King Trivia at The Oaks!

A boisterous night of King Trivia filled the rarefied air of The Oaks Tavern in Sherman Oaks on the best Wednesday since last Wednesday.

Quiz in my pants finished strongly, falling one point short of the third place prize. Successfully doubled down took third place, even though they twice unsuccessfully doubled down.

The Drinking Round needed two tiebreakers after Dilly dilly and Where Is the Fire? both knew the series of tv theme songs were from 1985 and both identified two of the six songs. It came down to the universal question, "Where was your quizmaster's wife born?" Dilly dilly were geographically closest to Chicago with Minneapolis defeating Buffalo.

Will Katrina ruin CJ's retirement party? Did Stefon really earn than bachelor's degree in hotel management? Find out next week on an all-new episode of King Trivia at The Oaks!

We has a simply stupendous night of King Trivia at The Oaks. The trivia was hot, the beer was cold, and my shoes were very clean.

Awesome Sauced were perfect through the initial six rounds on the way to an impressive win.

Where Is the Fire? never let up and finished in a very strong second place. 

Not only did The Lakers win the coveted third place prize, they also aced the drinking round, recognizing tonight's backwards song as "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas & The Papas.

Kudos to CalzonesBad Babies, and The Turtles as well - in the Picture Round, all six teams combined for only one incorrect answer. As Dostoyevsky wrote in The Brothers Karamazov, "That's some great frickin' trivia playing, Boris!"

Will Rachel find out about Murray's infidelity? Will Carson really open that barbershop? Find out next week on an all-new episode of King Trivia at The Oaks!
