With the World Cup in full swing The White Harte was looking more like a mead hall than a pub! Teams did not let all those extra tables go to waste! It was PACKED tonight! I felt like I was in Trivia Valhalla!
For tonight's drinking round I figured I'd tug on some nostalgia strings and play "KERPLUNK!" But with a twist! Instead of having the least amount of marbles at the end, the winner was whomever had the closest to 7 without going over. Yeah, Price is Right rules! Most people had 0 or 1, one player had 16! But our rep from the MOISTketeers got some drinks with 5 marbles! No marbles were lost, because let's face it... I lost my marbles a LONG time ago!
For our real trivia game...
He may have an amazing voice but let's face it, Steve Perry is a damn liar! There's no Such Thing as South Detroit! Came in 3rd place and took home the $10 GC! They go on and on and on and oooh!
My players know, I'm more of a nerd than a sports fan. So it should be no surprise that I thought tonight's 2nd place team's name Strakarnir Okkar was Klingon instead of the Icelandic battle cry "our boys" in support of their team in the World Cup! (Oh yeah, I googled that shit!)
Our winning team's namesake left me very confused in the 90's as a young metalhead. I hated pop music, but... my hormones! Because... It's Brittany, Bitch! For the 2nd week in a row took home the mantle of 1st place!

The only word to sum up tonight's game, calls for a quote of Joey Russo from "Blossom"..."WHOA!" I always get to The White Harte at least a half hour early. Tonight, I made it there early and was pressed to find a parking spot! So many people played that a few teams had to share tables! First and foremost I want to thank everyone for letting me live my rockstar fantasy that made me become a Quizmaster all those years ago! Secondly, it was so hot that I wore shorts tonight. So I apologize to anyone who looked down and got blinded!
It was so crowded, that I had to change my drinking round on the fly, since it would probably cause a fire hazard or at least piss Mary off that we were all in her way! So, 1 Rep from each team joined me outside in "Wright Brothers, Schmight Brothers." Where teams made paper airplanes, and whoever's plane flew the farthest won! Tonight's drinking round winners, a team that is usually a brutal dictator when it comes to trivia points, but at least they had a good time! Kim Jong Fun!
In 3rd place, a team who has a recurring show in Las Vegas, so they didn't mind tonight's heat... It's Brittany, Bitch!
In 2nd place, a team that could be Hosts revolting in either "West World" or "The Raj" (Either way, they're deadly!)Cowboys and Indians!
Tonight's 1st place team, either didn't eat all damn day, or had the right idea this morning! Burgers for Breakfast? ... how is that a question? YES!

HOLY SHIT! Yeah, I know, I don't usually swear right off the bat... but HOLY SHIT! The White Harte was PACKED with trivia players and we started the game off with a SEVEN TREAM TIE! All with perfect doubles AND registered team bonus points! It was an incredibly close game with teams leading each other by only 1 or 2 points throughout, and some upsets for teams with an early lead!
In our "Logo Mania" drinking round, teams drew me a logo for their team. Some were very artfully done, some had a great theme and stick figures. They all made me laugh! Our winners The Squirtle Squad drew the most badass bunch of Pokemon I'd ever seen!
Coming in 3rd place, a team I'm very proud of, because at least I know they voted for someone today, Vote For Pedro!
Our 1st and 2nd place teams tied tonight at 71 points, after both doubling down in round 5 and jumping ahead of the previous leaders. Game of Thrones fans The Mildlings went against Delicious Food fans Tenders and Thai Sauce in a tie breaker! Well, The night is dark and full of errors! The Mildlings came out on top and claimed 1st place!
