Tuesday night at Cowtown Brewing Co. was nothing short of electric as trivia fans packed the brewery for another unforgettable game of PubGuys Trivia, hosted by me, The Angry Irishman. With the taproom buzzing, pitchers flowing, and some amazing food served up by Smokin Jays BBQ Tacos, six teams battled it out across six rounds and a bonus question for the crown—and the $50 grand prize.
Let’s break down the action!
From the jump, it was clear the trivia veterans had come to play. After the first round, there was a three-way tie for first place — Hot Tequila, The Waterboys, and Uggy Uggy Uggy each scored a solid 6 points. Right behind them were Spooning Leads to Forking and I Quizzed My Pants, still very much in striking distance.
In Round 2, Hot Tequila and The Waterboys maintained their lead, each picking up another 7 points. Uggy Uggy Uggy stayed consistent with 7 as well, while Spooning Leads to Forking stumbled slightly, dropping 4 points this round. The scoreboard was still tight at the top, but things were about to shift.
Round 3 saw The Waterboys pull ahead, dropping an impressive 8 points to take the lead. Hot Tequila stayed close behind with 7, while Uggy Uggy Uggy slowed down, only bringing in 5. Teams were starting to feel the pressure as the bonus questions came into play.
Then came Round 4 — a make-or-break moment. Hot Tequila came roaring back with a massive 11-point round, the highest single-round score of the night. That clutch performance launched them back into first place and left The Waterboys scrambling after a modest 5-point round. The lead had officially changed hands!
The final two rounds were a slugfest. The Waterboys tried to rally in Round 5, picking up 7 more points, but Hot Tequila held their ground with 5. Uggy Uggy Uggy continued to hang around in third, steady but not quite closing the gap.
By Round 6, every team knew it was do or die. The Waterboys outscored Hot Tequila here, 6 to 4, but thanks to earlier dominance — and a crucial 2-point bonus — Hot Tequila held onto a narrow lead.
After six intense rounds and strategic bonus plays, here’s how the leaderboard landed:
🥇 1st Place – Hot Tequila (42 points)
🥈 2nd Place – The Waterboys (40 points)
🥉 3rd Place – Uggy Uggy Uggy (36 points)
Spooning Leads to Forking claimed a respectable 4th place with 33 points, while I Quizzed My Pants and No Folk and Chance rounded out the night with 25 and 21 points, respectively.
From clever team names to wild guesses and perfect rounds, Cowtown Brewing Co. was alive with laughter and excitement. As always, the competition was fierce, the beer was cold, and the trivia was top-notch. If you weren’t there this week, make sure you’re ready next Tuesday. The Angry Irishman will be back—and you’ll want a seat.
Until next Tuesday...
