Slower night for par here at Barney's. I'm getting better with everyone's names, individual players that is. In honor of the first academy awards being held on this date in 1929, I had them guess what the 12 categories were back then. Kudos to the Pasadena Peeps' satellite team, Mutual Admiration Society (who barely lost 1st place in the final round) for getting 7 out of 12 correct. The Second Cousins made a return tonight after several weeks off, but it was Da Bears who prevailed with a double down on the final round, with Purple Monkey Dishwasher taking third place. Had some fun with the music selections tonight, folks seemed to enjoy it as well.

I've started to get to know some players recently. I've been learning names and there was a fun moment when a player from PhilosoRaptors asked if I could repeat a question to which I responded, "I always do, Greg."
Got a few compliments for my playlist tonight, particularly a song from the Willow soundtrack, which some people recognized. Glad to finally play something from this fantastic score, thanks to the Willow Smith question!
Pasadena Peeps stayed on top of the leaderboard all game and had a perfect game going for most rounds, successfully doubling on all but two. Congrats to them, We Get Buckets, and newcomers (or been a whiles) Giant's Milk for Ghost who also won the drinking round!

A full night with lots of teams and players. In honor of Nessie first being reported at Loch Ness on this date, I had them come up with as many cryptids as they could for the drinking round. Kudos to Da Bears for getting the most right (those Jersey Devils!) and for donating the pitcher to the last place team.
Some back and forths onpoints resulted with Team Obi-Wan doubling big in the last round for a mighty close match, grats!
