QUIZ RECAP

Another hard-fought battle as a rivalry has emerged between Mike Tyson's Speech School and the team who this week was known as Monica LeWINski (for the first round anyway). This marked the third consecutive week that one of the two was the winner, and the second consecutive week they've finished 1-2. However, it was Tyson reclaiming their crown this week after being Buster Douglas'ed last Wednesday.

Drink Coffee at the Merchant and Mike Tyson's Speech School each started with perfect double-or-nothings in the first two rounds, and Merchant led after three rounds but couldn't maintain their pace down the stretch, slipping to fifth when it was all said and done. My Body is a Jungle Gym narrowly captured third place, besting Soup Nazis by a point. Tyson's Speech School won with 71, and Monica LeWINski/George Kush/Bob BARKer/T'ain't here, T'ain't there/Jennifer Aniston's Nipples finished close behind with a fitting score of 69.

See y'all next week!

QUIZ RECAP

Holden Caulfield (aka 7 other literary names throughout the night) got to experience the glorious taste of victory after a long history of third place finishes, and all it took was the largest point total in Rasselbock trivia history. Successful double-or-nothings in rounds 2, 5, and 6, along with a 10-point Guess Who round brought them the impressive 83 point total. Not too far behind, however, were Quizmasters--who finished with 72 even after a failed double in the final round.

Speaking of failed doubles, there were a lot of them. Only two teams registered points in the final round, as teams' overconfidence in their knowledge of Life Savers colors created pure carnage. Round Three also had three failed doubles, as teams confused their Bush presidents.

Mike Tyson's Speech School couldn't continue their winning streak, but they still made the podium with a solid third place finish.

QUIZ RECAP

The biggest trivia night ever at Rasselbock did not disappoint, with high scores, lead changes, and intense competition until the very end. 7 teams still had a chance at victory going into the final round, but it was Mike Tyson's Speech School that came away with the win, riding successful doubled in the first and sixth round, as well as a first-clue guess in round five. Omaxidor (among other elf names) pulled 2nd place with 66 points, and Dumpster Fire and Das Sweater Gurlz tied for third place at 60. Das Sweater Gurlz won on the tiebreaker by guessing more closely guessing the miles of New Jersey coastline (although 39 was a pretty iffy guess). Kluge Jungs captured the drinking round, guessing the Rotten Tomatoes score of 1933's The Robe, the lowest reviewed Golden Globe best picture winner ever.

We'll see if we can top the record 14 teams next Wednesday!
