QUIZ RECAP

William Shakespeare wrote, "All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players." Speaking of players, Rocco's Tavern was the stage for King Trivia on Monday night. Five teams competed for for glory and the competition was fierce. Almost every team held the lead at some point and almost every round ended with a lead change.

Michelle's Fan Club not only won the Drinking Round, they also came in third. Mookman scored nine points in Round 7 and Cornhuskers scored seven, both finishing with 44. That led us "to unpathed shores, undreamed shores," or, as The Bard called it, the King Trivia tiebreaker.

The tiebreaker question was not written by Shakespeare, but dealt with what Shakespeare had written. And you would be hard pressed to find an ending to a Shakespeare play as dramatic as Mookman taking first place.

See you all again next week for more King Trivia at Rocco's Tavern where we will, as the great playwright wrote, "answer many a question, possibly on the subject of Hot Tub Time Machine. Billy Shakes out!"

QUIZ RECAP

After a very brief 27 month hiatus, King Trivia is back at Rocco's Tavern! Nine teams joined us for an exciting night that began with every team scoring either five or six points in the General Knowledge Round.

The competition remained fierce throughout the night. There were several lead changes and the results were unclear until the Final Round. Monday Night's profound knowledge of dog breeds vaulted them to first place with Team Owen, and Hoosier Baddies close behind.

Team Owen won the Drinking Round, correctly identifying the year Aretha Franklin's "Respect" was released. (It was 1967, for those of you playing at home.)

Join us next Monday night for more King Trivia at Rocco's Tavern in Culver City, CA, USA, Earth, etc.

QUIZ RECAP

What could be better than the daily free social media question provided by King Trivia? A second freebie when your ding-dong of a quizmaster accidentally reads an answer as part of a question. You're welcome.

Fire Rob Manfred certainly didn't need the assistance of me reading "Puyi was the last person to hold what title in China?" as "Puyi was the last emperor of China. Um. Oops." They successfully doubled in the first three rounds and never looked back.

Fuck, I Don't Know used a strong Round 5 (which I mistakenly announced as Round 7) to pull away from the competition on the way to a second place finish.

Painted Taints were the only team to score 10 points in the Guess Who? round. No other team scored better than 4 points. And I'm sure they weren't distracted when I dropped my Round 6 handouts on the floor.

I hope you'll all join us next Monday for another fun evening of King Trivia when maybe I'll inadvertently eat the microphone.
