Thursday night at Keyworth Brewing Co. was packed with trivia lovers, cold pints, loud cheers, and plenty of friendly rivalry. PubGuys Trivia delivered two exciting games, with three rounds in each and random bonus questions keeping the scores close and the pressure high. The crowd was amazing, the brewery was buzzing, and both games came down to thrilling finishes.
Game 1 began with Killer Rabbits, Did You Know? We Don’t Know, and Something Random all opening with 7 points. The early race was immediately crowded, while Red Moonenites, Pivot All Day, and 2 Pups and a Trivia Cup stayed within striking distance.
After Round 2, the lead changed hands. Did You Know? We Don’t Know surged ahead with a massive 9-point second round, giving them 16 points and the advantage at the halfway mark. 2 Pups and a Trivia Cup made the biggest move behind them, adding 7 points to reach 12. Killer Rabbits sat just behind at 12, while Something Random and Red Moonenites remained firmly in contention.
Round 3 brought the drama. Did You Know? We Don’t Know struggled with just 1 point, opening the door for the chasing teams. Killer Rabbits and 2 Pups and a Trivia Cup both closed with 6 points, finishing tied at 18. Something Random also made a strong final push and ended at 17, alongside Did You Know? We Don’t Know.
With the top two teams tied, one player from each team would face a single tie-breaker question, with 10 seconds to hand in an answer. The supplied results do not identify the tie-break winner, so the Game 1 leaders remain listed as tied.
