- PUB QUIZ—Wednesdays @ 9:00pm
An exciting game of trivia as our teams attempted to catch Tea Lizards who had an early lead and managed to maintain that throughout the duration of the night. 2nd and 3rd were constantly in flux as Vaxxed, Waxed and Spouting Some Facts took on McFatterson and Whiskey Thoughts (until they were caught cheating...wah wah wah). Nice to MEAT You may not have made it into the winner's circle tonight but they provided some great "guesses" in the form of answers that definitely made the Quizmaster laugh so that will always be appreciated - and hey, you still won a free pitcher of beer for your efforts in the Drinking Round where we attempted to name the three animals that have been voiced by Round 3 spotlighter John Cena.

And the return tour continues! Barney's Burbank was ready for some trivia tonight - and each and every team truly delivered round after round. Our regulars, Intravenus DeMilo, Millennial Falcons, Tea Lizards and Vaxxed, Waxxed and Chris is Back! flitted in and out of first, second and third throughout the entire evening while newbies Funcky Muncys brought the heat and kept on gaining ground with every question asked. An exciting game to witness - and I'm sure equally as exciting to play! Teams struggled with athlete nicknames but in a particularly challenging Find the Connection round, they really outshone themselves and started the second half of the game very strong. If this is what the 2021 competition is going to look like, everyone's gonna be Tournament ready in no time!

What a night! We had eleven teams compete this week, which has been a high since returning to play at Barney's. With so many players and such close scoring, the game was up for grabs all night, seeing only one to two points separating most teams for the duration of the game!
The Ultimate Losers and Coven Lovers McGuffin were close for much of the night, closing out tied at 36 points, only slightly behind third runner up Goofs and Gaffs at 42. That score put Goofs only two points from the top three. The three teams who managed to walk away with thier gift cards from Barney's this week were (in ascending order) The Quizards of Waverly Place, Intravenus De Milo, and this weeks champion, We Always Come From Behind, with 44, 46 and 48 points respectively.
Other high points included our Origami Pageant winners getting a promotional soccer ball from Sony Pictures' Early Man (2018) and scorekeeping/grading provided by our new Quizmaster in training, Warholy! All in all, it was another great week to play, and we can't wait to see you at the next one!
