QUIZ RECAP

Tonight was the first King Trivia at Rocco's Tavern of 2020 with spring training baseball on the televisions, so it was fitting that our winners were Fire Rob Manfred.

There were absolutely no baseball questions in the quiz, but The Painted Taints' familiarity with California's population centers helped them into second place.

XM/CG came in third even thought they didn't join the game until the second inning. Round. I meant round. I am totally focused on trivia questions and pitching them to the players.

Go Cubs!

QUIZ RECAP

Today brought us an active NHL trade deadline but no one at Rocco's Tavern was willing to trade away their beloved Monday night King Trivia.

Round 3 took us on a trip to Argentina where Harvey's Going to Jail...About Time began collecting the points that, once they cleared customs, assured them the victory. The Painted Taints and Flat Earth Globetrotters both successfully used the Double Down in Round 6 to keep things interesting.

And a big shout out to All Star Shrek who used my wife's Instagram username as an answer in Round 2. I am not at all weirded out by this but I have grown a mustache and my new identity is Schaumburg, Illinois-based produce inspector Patrick O'Leary.

QUIZ RECAP

(The difficult questions are hiding.)

Every team successfully doubled in the first round.

(The difficult questions are hiding.)

Six of the nine teams successfully doubled in the second round.

(The difficult questions are hiding.)

Four teams attempted a double in the third round.

"Hello! We are the difficult questions and we are no longer hiding!" Only one team was successful.

So began the great adventure that was King Trivia at Rocco's Tavern. The Double Devil remained quiet for most of the evening until he once again touched Vodka Jesus Do? with his evil in the final round, resulting in a close win for 3 Lefts on a Yellow.

And apologies to the woman who walked in during Round 5 and insisted that I allow her to join the Karaoke. Sorry, my microphone is for questions about Ariana Grande, not the murder of her music.
