QUIZ RECAP

Warm Summer nights have officially begun and we're keeping it sweet on the Pineapple Hill all season!

Three Newcomers challenged 9 Regular teams tonight, it was a thrilling game with some teams "Flying Solo" from as far as Santa Clarita! An entirely different Valley, you say? Something to light a fire to defend home turf under the "Beautiful San Fernando Valley All Stars", and boy, did it!

Round 1 was a high-scoring round, with almost every team scoring 5 or succeeding in doubling down!

Round 2 had some regular teams mobilize to defend their honour and had a few 8 pointers as well as 4 successful double-downs. Worth 16 points, they later proved to be a valuable play as Round 3 stumped most.

Round 4 kept people guessing until the end, but a few teams made it in clues 1 and 2, pulling out ahead.

The Drinking round went to "The Kids' Table" after a 12 way tie (not kidding). And they toasted their victory with drinks on the house.

Round 5 brought it back to straight trivia and in round 6, desperate to turn the tables, more than HALF the teams unsuccessfully doubled-down, allowing "Tequila Mockingbirds" to pull from a tense neck-and-neck to a commanding lead, and a relaxed 7th round.

The game came to a close with a devastated field giving precedence to "Tequila Mockingbirds", "Ovaltine Jenkins", and the "Beautiful San Fernando Valley All Stars" in descending order.

Happy Juneteenth, or Freedom Day!

A warm night for hot trivia. Our 9 teams did battle leisurely, enjoying all the delicious foods and libations Pineapple Hill offers! It was a mostly conservative match, with only one double-down attempt all evening ( it was successful, by the way ).

Rounds 1 and 2 slipped by with an average field, although by round 3, "Tequila Mockingbirds" pulled much further ahead of the pack than they were, a lead they would command to the sweet end.

Tricky Dick gave a few teams pause, but they sure did know their Cakes! and most teams made it to round 7 within a few points of each other. We finished the night with "Tequila Mockingbirds" way out front, trailing "Boarder Babies" and "Raise Your Hand if You're Pretty" in the 40s and most others not far behind that.

Shootout at the Saloon

What better way to set the tempo for the night than a good old-fashioned Mexican standoff with a 5 way tie between T.M. (Tequila Mockingbirds), T.A.N.W. (Theres always next week), L.M. (Las Mamacitas), T.K.T. (The Kids Table), and D.J.U. (Don Jong Un). After round 2 T.M. came on top getting all the pictures that "POP," putting them ahead of the game leaving a tie between T.A.N.W. , T.K.T. , and R.W.C. (Running with Ceaser's) ; who made a comeback after being down by two to the 5 way standoff in the first round. Moving onto round 3, T.K.T rallied to tie the game back up with T.M. with 27 points a piece. and R.W.C continued to push on to grab the spot for third. They weren't done there because they came and they took advantage of T.M. slipping up in round 4. T.K.T. did get the "Guess Who" right but the reason they came up short was because it took them to long to get the answer. But T.M. would not lay down because by round 6 they reclaimed not only the first place spot but a free round of drinks to go with it when they won the Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament. As T.M. maintained the lead and closed out the night as our Kings and Queens of Trivia, R.M. secured the second spot, and L.M. came out of the shadows to take third place.
