Shaken or stirred? Congrats Fatties and Baddies on wining 1st place! This was Fatties and Baddies first ever win at King's Head. Team BIFs (not exactly sure what that means) finished in 2nd with 63 points. But the most exciting part of the night was the threesome we had for 3rd place. And by threesome, I mean a three-way tie. Drunken Donuts, Dornish Game Men, and Kitten Mittens (meowww!) all tied for 3rd. The tiebreaker question was "How much money was Sean Connery paid for one of his James Bond films?" Dornish Game Men was the closest to the correct answer and got the bonus point for 3rd place. In fact, DGM's guess was the only answer that was close.

Meowwwsers! Tonight's trivia came down to a tiebreaker question about hot dogs. Kitten Mittens and Streets of Rage, trivia best friendemies, were all tied at 72 after seven rounds. The tiebreaker question asked, "How many hot dogs did Joey Chestnut eat in the 2017 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest?" It's incredible to think that Joey actually ate 72 hots dogs in 10 minutes. It's also incredible that Kitten Mittens guessed 73. It's not so incredible that Streets of Rage guessed 98 hot dogs. Now that would be an upset stomach!

Congrats Kitten Mittens (with only 4 regular members) on winning 1st place! I hope you're listening to some Lisa Lisa & The Cult Jam this week. Streets of Rage finished in 2nd (ending their three consecutive trivia wins). And A Team Has No Name took 3rd.
