The atmosphere was absolutely firing, whether it was the question about Transformers or 20th century Russian history, everyone seemed to be on their game, competing at the highest level . Tonight's trivia was no joke; we had teams like Turkey Dinner and Call of the Mild really putting on the turbojets to make sure they could come home with the points they deserved. And although the battle was close, only one Victor can prevail. Congrats to Vodka Jesus do.

We had a great night of King Trivia at Thunderbird while just up the street Hollywood held the Oscars. 14 teams came out to compete to see who would go him in first place as the most smartest. We had a lot of returning faves who are registered here at KingTrivia.com which also adds 2 additional points to their scores! Out of the gate at the end of Round 1, "Two Smart Chicas" and Dan Mitchell to Colorado" scored the highest with 8 points. But not far behind with 7 points was "Joker Is Overrated," "3 Guys & Fries," and "Beat Billy." Round 2 is our picture round where all the teams have to guess the 8 items on our picture handout. No one guessed all 8 but "Dan Mitchell" and "3 Guys" scored 7 while "Joker Is Overrated," "Let's Get Quizzical," and "Whiskey Nachos" answered 6 of the pictures correctly. "Joker" and "3 Guys" BOTH DOUBLED their scores in Round 3 when they placed an "X" in the upper right hand corner of their round wagering double or nothing... they both answers ALL their questions correctly which in turn DOUBLED their score for that round to 12! Had they gotten even one answer wrong, they would have scored a big ole "0" for the round. So hats off to them! Hats off to "Dan Mitchell" who won the Drinking Round" when they were the only team to correctly guess the kind of alcohol George, the bartender, enjoys the most! Oh and I'm not going to tell it here in case we do that drinking round again. 😉 None of our teams were able to Guess Who in Round 4 on the white privilege point clue. But "Joker" was the only team to guess it on the 8 point clue. "Dan Mitchell" answered all 10 questions correctly in Round 5. "Cardinal Rosenberg" not only did the same but they also DOUBLED their score when they marked the Double or Nothing box on their round gaining 20 points!! "Cardinal" ALSO matched all 10 answers correctly on our matching handout round, Round 6. "Almost Third" answered 9 while "Joker Is Overrated" answered 8! "3 Guys" came out ahead in our last round, Round 7, when they DOUBLED their score with 18 points sailing them ahead of everyone else to 63 points and in FIRST place. They also received $30 in chips towards their next Thunderbird visit. "Joker Is Overrated" placed SECOND with 57 points and $20 in Thunderbird chips towards their next visit. And "Cardinal Rosenberg" went home in THIRD place with 55 points and $10 in Thunderbird chips towards their next visit. Thanks to George, the rest of the bar, kitchen, and waitstaff for their stellar service. Looking forward to next time!
