Tonight's game was I think the best. The questions weren't too hard and we had lots of excited players! They were all eager to play and we had a full house.
The first round was not easy for many teams. Only one team got all the questions correct and this was Highways Stars. The question that tripped everyone was "What Nintendo system launched with the game Super Mario Land?" The answer was Game Boy!
As we went on, we had Basic Bitches and Highway Stars had only a one point difference. But suddenly in round 6, the Late Arrivals doubled down and was tied with Highways Stars! In the end, they tied for first with Basic Bitches, but ended up second due to the tie breaking question which was "Throughout its history, how many head coaches has the Duke Blue Devils baseball team had?" Late Arrivals answered 0 while Basic Bitches answered 11. Answer? It was 23, so Basic Bitches took the win!
Great game!!

Tonight's game was great! Players were full of energy and the enthusiasm was unreal. We had a full house tonight with 13 teams, and over 40 players. It was packed!
For the first round, no one doubled down, but there were 4 teams that should have! 4 out of the 12 had gotten every single question correct for round 1. Starting from the second round, we had two teams who were neck and neck, with only a point difference. Team Where's Kevin and Scissors me Timbers doubled down on the 2nd round and were at 21 and 22 points respectively. Throughout the entire game, till the very end, they were only 1 point away from each other! However, in the end, the winner was Where's Kevin. Great job!!

Such a fun evening at The Dudes'! I got some great looks from the people in the mall before finding the place, lugging my speaker up and down escalators...never leave home without Googling where you're going, kids!
Tonight had so many great and fun answers, so I'm going to recap my favorites from the night:
- What is the largest land-dwelling member of the weasel family? Pauly Shore, from Barely Knowledgable
- What tall American co-wrote Mastering the Art of French Cooking? Abraham Lincoln, from Cheese Heads
- Guardians of the Galaxy & The Backstreet Boys as rap groups, from SoCal Transplants
- A Double or Nothing on a blank Round 2, from 4 on the Floor
- 1991. Naked man steals clothes, hangs out with underage boy, and shoots police officer numerous times: Big, from SoCal Transplants...not sure which version of Big you guys were watching...
- "My Wiener", using the initials "MW" for "Michelle Williams", from Scott's Tots...keeping it classy, gentlemen.
- Which cable network is known for its annual Shark Week marathon? Discovery Planet, from Cheese Heads...so close...
- What are the Three Jewels, or Three Refuges, of Buddhism? BB Chung King and Screaming Buddha Heads, from Highway Stars; No Rules, from SoCal Transplants
- What are the names of the three wise men who brought Baby Jesus frankincense, gold, and mhyrr? Gold, Frankensens, and Murr, from SoCal Transplants; Larry, Moe, and Curly, from Highway Stars
All in all, a very fun evening with a lot of fun people! The Highway Stars came out on top with the dark horse team due to their relatively quiet evening (I see you, ladies...), Good God, Lemon!, finishing in a strong second.
Keep on going, party people! Hope to see you all again soon!
