About The Recess Room

Answer Submission Form for The Recess Room

One fateful day three decades ago, five boys picked up a game of handball during school recess on a Fountain Valley playground. They grew up together, became life-long friends and pursued their own ambitions. But they shared a deep love for their hometown and dreamed of one day opening a restaurant together where they could share good food, good drinks and reminisce about good times. The Recess Room is their childhood dream come to life.

Everyone told their mothers, brothers, and lovers to come out to the Recess Room for King Trivia, and we had a full house tonight! Special shout out to the Home Team for offering his table to a team of four -- if it wasn't for some quick thinking, I would've made him sit on the floor! Haha!

The competition was fierce -- Newbies Spicy James did really well on their first go, doubling down on their Kings and taking home the 3rd place prize (by pure luck, as the ROUSs forgot to turn in their pen for an extra bonus point at the very end!). Thirsty Pretzels were chock full of confidence, with their lowest score all night being 6 out of 10 -- they took home the 2nd place prize and a free appetizer for being the first team to figure out Mick Jagger started Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys. But ultimately, it was the Highway Stars that doubled down on Round 5, clearly our most difficult round of the evening, taking home the 1st place prize and all the quiztastic glory.

Guys, not only was it awesome having so many teams here to up the ante, and having 7 out of 8 teams registering to compete for that $10k prize at the end of the year, but to have all of you be a shining example of good sportsmanship, and just having some gosh darn fun with it all! I love the good chi and phenomenal energy you all bring to the Recess Room. Much love to you all! <3

This game was the toughest most of us have seen in a while ("Ava DuVernay!" "Who????"), but we all pulled through, and, silver lining -- everyone got something to show for it.

Quizmaster-in-Training Team Cory was here to play, and although he would've won only by golf rules, he still got a free appetizer for being the closest person to guess how many people lived Down Under. Crazy Poor Asians went home a little richer with 3rd place winnings (despite being one round behind!) and hopefully a little more confidence in their soccer knowledge. Knock on Wood fought against a rough start, and took home the 2nd place winnings for knowing their booze. Win Or Lose We Still Booze knew their drinks AND their soccer AND their A-Game countries, so they got to go home with 1st place winnings and all the bragging rights they could muster.

Excellent job tonight, everyone!

Tonight was the busiest I've seen it at the Recess Room, and everyone came to win! The average score was an impressive 61, so management thanks you for keeping the floors and tables free of bloodshed.

Tam Mobile Lost A Wheel started in the bottom of the barrel, giving everyone else enough time to let their guard down before they doubled down twice in Rounds 5 and 6, boosting them to the top spot in a heartbeat! The Home Team and Love 10 had to duke it out for the second place prize, but it was Love 10 that was able to best closely guess the year Iran closed its last McDeaths.

Special shot out to Quizmaster-in-training, Cory -- not Matt -- who got everyone through a very interesting Round 5! We're hoping to see him again soon!
