After missing last week's game because I was hanging out with Slash, Axl and Duff at Dodger Stadium, it felt great to be asking questions, playing tunes, and drinking beer with you all again.
Once again no teams were successful in doubling on the first round, but then Orange You Glad moved in to a commanding lead on round 2 with their knowledge of TV detectives! It looked like they might run away with the the whole game too as they kept building on their lead in subsequent rounds... Until the Matching Round when John Elway came out of retirement to ruin their night. That allowed Whole Half Yards and Pasadena Peeps to take over the top 2 spots. The excitement wasn't over though as round 7 provided a chance for #p4L (the only team to pull a successful double in the round) to make a miraculous move from 5th up to 2nd place!
Congrats again to Whole Half Yards for their first win of Season 7 and to the Pasadena Peeps who have now finished in the money 4 weeks in a row!
See you next Thursday!

Quizmaster Andy took the night off, so QM Tim stepped in, and nothing could have prepared me for the sordid, unspeakable behavior on display at Barney's Pasadena last night! I mean, sure, I was warned about the name calling and trash talking. But the throwing of beer-soaked paper towels!? Well that's just over the line, doncha think? And it hit me right in the face!!
Okay, I'm lying about all that, but the competitive spirit was very much on display, as 15 teams vied for the trivia trophy. We Always Come From Behind decided to come from ahead, by jumping out to an early lead with a successful Round One double!
Though they held that lead through five rounds, Urban Achievers steadily chipped away at it, gaining a point or two each round, tied the score in Round Six, and outscored 'em in the final round to win the night by a slim 2 points!
Pasadena Peeps finished in third place, by just ONE POINT, with a total of 53, and both Circus-Sized Peanuts and Tequila Mockingbird finished up with identical scores of 52 - just one point out of the running!
It's no wonder the strong scent of competition permeated the room all night! These guys are good!
