Hot summer trivia nights continue at the Fountainhead. Tuesday saw a record 10 teams duke it out for trivia supremacy, and even a nail-biting, chest-clutching, show-stopping tie-breaker finisher between Ask My Balls and The Black Mambas, the two stalwarts of Fountainhead trivia if ever there were any. The Lady Doctors in the House lady doctors dropped in to absolutely crush round 7 with a 9 out of 10 in Mel Brooks knowledge, and locked up third, while new teams like Veldman and the Cheftastics made strong competitive debuts. The Hot Tamales played fun and funny, supplementing their answers with lovely little drawings when they were unsure in an attempt to curry favor with the quizmaster. All told, a wonderful night of trivia in downtown San Jose.

Here at king trivia, we believe there is no better way to unwind after a long day than arguing with one's friends about whose educated guess has the best chance of being the right answer to an abstract question (that not even I would know the answers to without a cheat sheet). Because of this we are so grateful that many of our regular players as well as some trivia newbies decided to spend their Tuesday night with us. The game ended with team "Ask my Balls" (one of our regulars) taking 1st place with a score of 56 points. That being said, there were many points through out this game where anyone could have taken the lead, but team 'Ask my Balls" managed to stay sharp and bring home the win.

A lean crew out for trivia tonight, but increasingly tense rounds as leads changed, double-or-nothings were used, and in the end the it all came down to a single point. The Black Mambas unfortunately believed their namesake had won more than a single MVP award, but they smartly didn't answer a "Guess Where" question and spared themselves from losing a point, and their lead. That type of strategy is rare, and rarely used by teams that don't put in the veteran work of showing up every week. Hats off to the Black Mambas for a stellar finish!
