Close scores, new friends, and a come-from-behind triumph infused our weekly trivia soiree with an extra dollop of delight this week at The Backdoor Bakery & Cafe in Sunland/Tujunga.
Among the new friends we met were the triumphant trio calling themselves The Cooper Clan. We say "triumphant" because they swept in on gossamer wings and took the victory with an impressive 58-point performance.
As for come-from-behind, late-game strategies, Party of Three pulled of an impressive double in the final round to jump from the middle of the pack to take second. Well done, THREE!! (The pack was pretty crowded, with close scores among all teams throughout the quiz! Tense! Exciting!
Frequent top-three finisher rounded out our top three with 54 points, which just barely edges out good performances by Three Caballeros (52 points) and Team Pudding with 51. See!?! I TOLD YA the scores were close.
As for making new friends, a King Trivia quiz is a great place to meet people and engage in friendly competition, and the Back Door Bakery and Cafe is an absolutely ideal place to meet the nicest people in the Sunland/Tujunga area.
Come by and get to know us! Have a bit to eat along with some food for thought via trivia. You'll be glad you did. See ya next week.

It is an interesting and frequently observed phenomena, that quiz fans participating in King Trivia events will treat their quizmasters with a certain...respect. They project a sense of reverence, really.
Yes, many KT quizinators look upon their quizmasters as they would an exalted and admired member of an elite group, not unlike a university professor; a research scientist; a medical professional, high office holder or spiritual leader.
They revere quizmasters in this way because they know that quizmasters must endure rigorous years of training to earn the robes and scepter. This training includes years of apprenticeship, rigorous study, and a grueling barefoot hike to the mountaintops of Tibet to meet and commune with the highest among us, the "Blessed One" whom we call Joshua.
The reverence KT quiz participants feel for their quizmasters might accurately be described as awe. When they approach their quizmasters with a question or an answer sheet, they do so slowly, respectfully, with head bowed. They speak in hushed tones and generally behave in a manner that communicates to any and all that they are in the presence of an almost God-like figure.
Funny thing, though: what I'm describing never happens at The Backdoor Bakery and Cafe in Sunland/Tujunga! In fact, it's just the opposite! The folks here are downright abusive to their quizmaster - calling him names, throwing things at him (me) and making fun of his haircut, robes and scepter.
They scare me very much, the folks who quiz at the Backdoor Bakery and Cafe. If I misspeak or mispronounce a word, there is derision and mockery! Look at the photos of the regulars at TBB&C! You can see it on their faces! This is a tough crowd. Mean and antagonistic!
Come see for yourself! It's outrageous! And delightful. See you next week!
