It was a fun one tonight with numerous doubles (& some failed ones in round 2)! Let's get into it!
I Lost My Virginity At... had an excellent game with 2 successful doubles & an excellent recovery after a -1 in round 4, only missing 1 question in the 2nd half & a double to end the game! They tie for 2nd, but then lose the tiebreaker, taking the bronze!
My least favorite grandson had an equally excellent game as evidenced by the tie. They finished the game with 2 doubles in a row to force this & win the tiebreaker, taking the silver!
20 Beto 20 Furious with another magnificent game tonight which included 3 successful doubles! They run away with it without much contention, taking the gold & becoming the champions of the night!

It was a spooktacular night of trivia at Founders. Whether the crowd was ready for it or not, we had a Halloween-themed set of trivia!
Things we learned through some wonderful incorrect answers tonight:
-Bob Cratchit is not dead in A Christmas Carol
-Stephen King has not written (at least not yet) novels with the titles: "Indonesian Soccer Team Stuck in a Cave" and "We're Going to Need to Redo Your Colonoscopy"
-Beetlejuice has never used the nickname "Ol' Black Eyes"
The drinking round was a scary good time! The teams were asked to come up with the scary story they could in 15 words or less. Below are their stories:
Sale, for shows; never worn - baby
Turtle man Mitch McConnell elected president
My ex-wife says she wants to get back together.
We didn't start the fire, but it's always burning since the world's been turning.
La Croix causes cancer.
Being forced to write a scary story in a bar on a Tuesday...
Ten years later I got a phone call. I'm the father of Rosemary's Baby.
And then she said "let's go the valley!"
Christine Hall, she's my ex-wife. Hit me with a frying pan once, got a shiner!
Ouija board at party. Guitar in corner. Strummed itself.
AND THE WINNER IS:
Texted with a girl from Tinder. We met the next day. It was my mother.
Founders, I love ya! Hope to be back soon!

We had a difficult one tonight with some low scores, but that doesn't mean that victory was any less glorious!
For the Love of Taco Bell had an incredible 1st half with 2 doubles in a row (the only team with 2 doubles). They're 2nd half was a different story however. It looked to be to a great start with a 9 in round 5, but then they had 2 failed doubles to end the game. This made fall from 1st into a tie for 2nd. They lose the tiebreaker & complete the fall from 1st to 3rd in the last round, taking the bronze!
Bippity Boppity showed some patient play along with a double in round 2. They cruise along to the end where they surprisingly are in a 2nd place tiebreaker. They take the tiebreaker & also break expectations (as it seemed they would finish in 3rd) with a 2nd place finish. Taking the silver!
First Man Second Furious played very conservatively & patient tonight & it paid off. They grab a double in round 2 & only had one bad round. They were in 2nd for most of the game, but their keep on trucking attitude turned out to be the recipe for success as For the Love of Taco Bell takes one chance too many in the last round & fall from 1st. First Man Second Furious snatches the lead from them & finish there. Earning the gold & becoming the champions of the night!
