About Rock & Reilly's DTLA

Reilly came into this world swinging. The first day of his life, he lost an eye, took a man’s life, and developed an insatiable appetite for whiskey. At the age of two, Reilly’s father lost him in a poker game. Six months later, Reilly won himself back.

When he was three years old, prohibition hit the United States and Reilly became enraged at the thought of Americans going thirsty. Hell–bent on supplying illegal spirits to the American people, he stowed away on a whiskey boat bound for the dry nation. Reilly was now in a strange land, armed with nothing but a family recipe for Irish whiskey and a smuggler’s wit. He quickly organized a gang of misfits known as the Black Eye Society and took over the routes of the nation’s milkmen. This enabled him to deliver whiskey in cleverly disguised milk bottles right to people’s front doors.

Before he was a teenager, Reilly became an underground legend. His name was whispered in back alleys and speakeasies across the nation, and songs were sung to tell of his tales. The style of these songs would later become known as Rock and Roll and the tunes can still be heard today, blaring out of the Irish rock pub that bears his name.

QUIZ RECAP

7 rounds, 7 teams, 1 substitute quizmaster who quickly fell in love with every single person in the room. It was a night that will live in infamy - Tuesday night trivia at Rock & Reilly's DTLA was poppin' off, as substitute Quizmaster Anna took hold of mic for the very first time. She of course had no way to prepare herself for the events that unfurled at R&R...seven teams, all intensely polite, all unstoppably respectful of the space and the game, all unbearably smart.

By the end of round 1, We Googled It and Brendan's Ex GF had already established a fierce competition, with both teams leading the pack with successful double downs. Round 2...both teams again got every point correct, but only Brendan's Ex GF doubled down, pulling ahead and never relinquishing the lead until they took home 1st place.

But it was The Leftovers vs. Gritty 2020 that turned out to be the most exciting rivalry of the night. For the entire game, they were never more than 2 points apart...and were exactly even for the last 3 rounds. Until The Leftovers barely eked out Gritty 2020 in the tie breaking question.

All in all, a great night. Quizmaster Anna had a blast. Even if not a single team could Find the Connection. 3 Cheers to Brendan's Ex Gf - may she always remain the one who got away.
