An impressive performance by Team Pudding this week at The Backyard Bakery and Cafe in Sunland/Tujunga. The Pudding duo (that's them there in photo #3, looking all pleased with themselves - and they should be!) They doubled successfully right out of the gate, took the lead in Round Two and never looked back!!

They completed their rout of the competition with another successful double in the final round, demonstrating an impressive knowledge about animated film franchises.

At the other end of the winner's circle, Bad Dragon edged out Sugar Bears by a single point to take third place. That's right! One single point. As you might expect, the Sugar Bears were sweet about it.

And right there in between, finishing in second, the Shana Maidelas once again showered your humble quizmaster with scorn and disrespect - which I correctly interpret as love and affection.

Come celebrate hump day by joining us at The Backyard Bakery. Your mind will be stimulated, and your tummy will be very pleased.

This week's trivia quiz at The Backdoor Bakery and Cafe in beautiful Sunland/Tujunga featured a pretty good battle for 2nd place between Team Pudding (the eventual winner) and Oahu Pools (who finished third.)

This result was especially impressive when you consider that Carrie (Oahu Pools) was a team of one, and held her own in this environment where two heads are often better than one. But one head was all she needed to put the pressure on the Pudding crew (photo #7 above). Good job, Carrie.

As for the Shana Maidela crew (photos 4, 5 & 6) well, Robin threw wet paper towels at me again, and that one guy kept sticking his tongue out, as you can plainly see. There's noting like photographic evidence, right? I was gonna photoshop his tongue green, but restrained myself. Not sure why.

See y'all next week.

A nice back-and-forth battle for first took place between Hodge Podge and Random Name this week at The Backdoor Bakery and Cafe in Sunland/Tujunga.

In the end, it was Hodge Podge by a nose, but it was close, close, CLOSE all evening.

At the same time, the distaff members of Froot Loops and Shana Maidelas put much of their creative energy into harassing and generally disrespecting their humble quizmaster.

Not to worry, however. King Trivia provides training for how to deal with rambunctious quizzers such as this, and I will be re-reading Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew this weekend.

I am determined to meet this challenge!! See ya next week.
