As I sit here in my hotel room in Joplin MO on my way to Chicago, I'm enjoying thinking back on last night's game, and writing about it for you on my smart phone. What I like about the trivia games at WOB Plano is the fact that the crowd is usually pretty laid back. It's a nice, mostly calm environment to give your taste buds a party, and give your brain a workout. The type of teams I see there range from the "one game early and then go home to rest" teams, the "come in later for game two" teams, and the "we're here to drink beer and play trivia all night" teams. Last night we had all three, and it was great! The two winning teams for Game One were from the first type I mentioned. Brand new team, Newly Weds, managed to grab First Place with a very strong third round, and I'm Right, You're Wrong grabbed second after maintaining that place throughout all three rounds. Both teams then said goodnight to trivia to get that much needed rest. In Game Two it was all about the "all nighters." After three rounds of outstanding questions it came down to a tie between I'm Big In 1/4" Scale and team Kosmic Mother Funkers. Their tie breaking question was all about the number of total chapters there are throughout the entire Harry Potter book series. I'm Big in 1/4" Scale had the closest answer to the total number, thereby earning that coveted First Place finish!
Another fun thing from the night was the gentleman who told me after the game that he had come in too late to play, but loved the game. He promised to be back next week, on time to play. This actually happens pretty often because The PubGuys OG's, Kyle, Terrell and Adam have put together a fantastic game for you!
Next week make sure to come by and tell me what device I used to do this write-up, and I'll give your an extra point in the game. Also, keep those #myextrapoint pictures happening for, you guessed it, an extra point!
See ya next week!
