Q: What do you call a person with no body and no nose?
A: Nobody Nose
Excitement! YES! That's what we had this week at Golden Road Brewery, as everybody nose!
After missing out on a couple of opportunities to double earlier in the quiz, Mike Pence None The Richer executed a brilliant final round double-or-nothing gambit, which put 'em in a tie with The Law Firm of Butts, Butts and Butts.
The tie-breaker put Mike in first place, which will come as a big relief to Pence member David, who was going to get saddled with the blame if the Pencers fell short, according to team president and CEO Amy, who has a long history of throwing David under busses.
Perfect Strangers were nearly immaculate in securing third place, with Kevin's Chili giving them a run for their money but coming up just a few points short.
We'll be back next week for more trivia excitement. Join us, wont' you?

Hey! If you can't laugh in the face of adversity... well, let's just say it can be very good (emotionally speaking) to laugh in adversity's face once in awhile.
With that in mind, we salute the clever minds behind team name Corona Virus W/Lime, who told adversity where it could stick it! And adversity blinked! At least it did last night on the side yard patio at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale.
It was a big, BIG night, at GRB, with twenty teams vying for quizzing glory. Of course, there can be only one. And last night, that one was Chicken Poodle Soup, who reigned victorious with a stunning 82-point performance.
Yes, at the top of the heap, there can be only one. But it turns out that, in vying for #2, there can be three! A three-way tie for second triggered the nail biter tiebreaker, which Mike Pence None the Richer won by the thinnest of margins. Congrats also to You're a Quizard, Harry and Those People for your fine efforts last night.
See y'all next week.

Before we begin this week's recap, allow me to call your attention to photo #1 above. This quizmaster is opposed to animal cruelty in any form. And as you can plainly see, that poor doogie is being horribly mistreated by its owner! NOT!
"She likes to sit in my lap," explained the pampered pup's accommodating human.
Uhm...ya think!?
And now, on to the recap: Wowzah! We had us another big, raucous night of trivia fun this week at Golden Road Brewery in Glendale. The side yard patio was once again chock-a-block full of trivia quiz enthusiasts, and the winning team - Jenny Craig Made Me Do It - was not acquainted with King Trivia when they arrived for dinner.
"We didn't know what was happening when we saw you setting up your equipment," Jenny explained after the quiz. "We thought you were a comedian, or a karaoke host. We've never done a trivia quiz before. But we loved it!"
Well, King Trivia is certainly easy to love. But especially so when you win big at Golden Road! See ya all next week.
