Game 1:
Thanks to all the wonderful teams that came out and joined me in the wonderful, July heat. While it was toasty outside, the beer was amazingly cold inside. We had 10 teams come out to enjoy the cold beer, wonderful BBQ and of course The Angry Irishman hosting PubGuys Trivia.
After 2 rounds we knew it was going to be a doozy of a game and the theme tonight was beat the staff competitors. We had Peasant Workers and The Revenge of Oz sitting in the lead at 11 points. Just a point behind, we had Team Name and Fact Time @ Ridgemont High. Slay and Dan’s Angels were in the mix too sitting just outside of 2nd place.
Our bonus questions this game would all focus on the wonderful characters in the Peanuts cartoons. Every team was hoping to channel their inner Charlie Brown because bonus points would be key this game.
With 4 of the top 5 teams taking 6 points in round 3, this was going to be a close finish. However, Peasant Workers and Team Name both took 5 of 6 bonus points which allowed them to edge out The Revenge of Oz and Fact Time @ Ridgemont high to take 1st and 2nd place. HOWEVER, Peasant Workers, as the staff competitors, could be the winners! Team Name came out on top, but we had a tie for 2nd place as The Revenge of Oz and Fact Time @ Ridgemont High ended the game knotted at 19.
1 fast question, 2 fast answers and we had our second-place team! We went to a Galaxy Far Far a way and asked how many countries the Star Wars movies were filmed in Worldwide. We had a guess of 4 and a guess of 8, with 8 being the closest to the correct answer of…well you will have to play to know the answer.
Congrats to our game 1 winners!
1st place Game 1 – Team Name
2nd place Game 1 – Fact Time @ Ridgemont High
Game 2:
After a quick break, a new round of beers and some snacks the teams were ready for Game 2. I quizzed my pants, Peasant Workers, SLY and Team Name were all in the mix going into round 3. Dan’s Angels and Fact Time @ Ridgemont high were looking up a small cliff as they were hoping to find a way to climb up the ranks for an upset.
Our bonus points this round were general science that ranged from knowing the largest desert in the world to the temperature that Fahrenheit and Celsius are equal. At the end of the game our scores differentiated by only 6 points between 9th place and 1st place. A single point separated each team (or group of tied teams) from the spot in front of them. With 14 points, Peasant Workers edged out SLY but again, the competing staff (who were off work) could not win! This left SLY to take the W at 13 points and Team Name took 2nd place at 12 points.
What a close game and what an amazing night of Trivia!
Congrats to our game 2 winners!
1st place Game 2 – SLY
2nd place Game 2 – Team Name
A huge shout out to Elaura, Nate, Josh, Samir, and Darryl for taking care of the players tonight. You all keep the beers full; the food is delivered hot, and you make my life easier as I get to host Trivia.
