OB's was trivia-ing it up tonight with another fun game of King Trivia. 8 teams came out to play to see who would go home in FIRST place and $40 towards their next OB's visit! "Jesse Can't Wait" not only answered every question correctly, they also DOUBLED their score and received 2 additional points for having a registered team here at KingTrivia.com for a total of 14 points in Round 1. Not too far behind was "College Board Approved" who also doubled and received 12 points. In Round 2, "College Board Approved" AND "OB Have" received 6 outta 8 points and "Student Debt Ceiling" and "Jesse Can't Wait" grabbed 7 outta 8 points. Our themed round, Round 3, seemed to prove advantageous for "OB Have" who doubled their score giving them a healthy lead in first place with 26 points. Big shoutout to "Hoosier Aggies" for their first time playing and also winning the Chili Cheese Fry Round! Round 4 seemed a little difficult for all the teams as they tried to Guess Who based on our clues. Most of the teams seemed to nail it on the four point clue while "Bud Lightyear" did lose one point for guessing incorrectly. But "Bud" came back strong in Round 5 answering 6 outta 10 questions correctly along with "Ganjarunners" who joined the game in Round 4. These two teams were only bested this round by "OB Have" who grabbed 7 points and "Student Debt Ceiling" who snagged 9 points! Our matching handout round, Round 6, was won by "The College Board Approved" with 6 points while "Bonnie's Booger Brigade," "Hoosier Aggies," "Student Debt Ceiling," and "Ganjarunners" weren't too far behind with 5 points each. Our final round had a couple busts by "Bud Lightyear" and "Ganjarunners" who tried to double their scores but ended up with some incorrect answers giving them the big ole fat "0" for the round. But I am proud of them for trying. In the end, "OB Have" went home in FIRST place with 45 points and $40 towards their next OB's visit. And "The College Board Approved" placed SECOND with 42 points and received $20 towards their next OB's visit. "Student Debt Ceiling" made it to THIRD place SLIGHTLY behind second with 41 points. A difference of just one point! What a great time as always. And a big thank you to Bonnie and the rest of the bar, kitchen, and waitstaff for their fantastic service. Looking forward to next time!

Awesome night of King Trivia at OB's in Manhattan Beach! Great staff, great food, and a chili cheese fries round! What more needs to be said? Oh, yeah the game! Marci Takes Forever to Come won the cheese fries round and every team was impressive. We all had a raucous good time. Jesse Can't Wait won the big prize with Student Debt Ceiling in control most of the game. Jesse Can't Wait made a big move in Round 6 with a double and that made all the difference! Had a great time guest hosting! - Quizmaster Mike

13 teams came out to OB's tonight to battle their wits in another game of King Trivia. We had a few returning teams double their scores in the first round and grabbed an additional 2 points for having a registered team at KingTrivia.com gaining the maximum 14 points. Way to knock it outta the park on the first round "Pussy Over Pancakes," "R.I.P. Bill Paxton," "Angry Piper and a Disgruntled Employee," and "Student Debt Ceiling." By Round 3, "Pussy Over Pancakes" and "Student Debt Ceiling" were tied for first. I wanna give a special shoutout to "Year of the Rat" and their confidence in trying to double almost every round. Unfortunately, they ended up busting on all of them. I was also really excited for "Where's Cassidy," a team who played with tons of heart and every got 8/10 points in Round 5. "Angry Piper and a Disgruntled Employee" received a perfect score on that round tying with "Pussy Over Pancakes" and "Student Debt Ceiling." But they ALL were one point BEHIND "R.I.P. Bill Paxton." "Dunder Mifflin A-Team" won the Chili Cheese Fry Round when they came the closest to guessing the number of airplanes in the world. Our handout round, Round 6, was all about musicals. This seemed pretty rough for many of our teams except for two. "The College Board Approved AP Drinking Team" and "Student Debt Ceiling" both not only answered ALL the questions in our handout round correctly but they both DOUBLED their scores moving them both up 20 points!! The games ended with "Student Debt Ceiling" going home in FIRST place and a $40 gift card to their next visit to OB's. BUT we had a three way tie for SECOND place and the $20 gift card to their next OB's visit between "Angry Piper and a Disgruntled Employee," R.I.P. Bill Paxton," and "The College Board Approved AP Drinking Team." We moved on to the tie breaking question which "The College Board Approved AP Drinking Team" won grabbing SECOND place and the gift certificate.

Thanks to Bonnie and the gang for their incredible service and all the teams for a great game. See yous all next time!
