OB's Manhattan Beach is proud to be your local beach pub since 1985. We are dedicated to personal attention, great food, excellent drinks and always a good time.
Cohort in the house! They may be down a member, but the spirit was high! They may have complained about some of the answers, but still won the quiz on a daring, go-for-broke double down on round 7. I salute the size of your balls Cohort.
E=MC Hammer duelling it out on the tie breaker. They threw out a random number, and hey, sometimes it's better to be lucky than smart. Sabeen knows a lot about Harry Potter and is actively recruiting new members to sit and watch the USC game with Courtney.
Long time no see Aeropeeps! They haven't been back since sports interfered with trivia 6 months ago... but with the demise of Buffalo Wild Wings trivia comes an opening on Wednesday nights. I've never seen a group of people so angry about coming third place. You still won a prize! If you're not first, you're last I suppose. And who am I to talk, they're one of the top ranked teams in all of King Trivia!
Year of the Rat had a bare bones team, with Michelle making her long awaited return. It's possible OB's is sending an all star team to harry potter trivia night, so watch out Los Angeles. Also, Rachel knows exactly how old Legolas is.
Wallets of El Segundo were missing their grumpiest member. But it's ok because they showed me their boobs.
Fun times were had. A merry unbirthday to you all.

Happy Un-birthday everyone!
Except Alex, because it was her birthday.
Well I received the biggest birthday surprise of all time today. Most of the surprise was hinged upon the fact that it's not my birthday for 3 more weeks. But that makes it so much better. I now get a whole month worth of birthday.
Things got a little crazy. Megan brought Angela who is 5'10" tall (just like Cindy Crawford, allegedly) She's newly single and ready to mingle. Get down to OB's all you creepers reading this!
Year of the Rat took 3 unacceptable weeks off, but Rachel got drunk and gave me loads of hugs so it was ok. Megan gave me the middle finger the whole night, which is fine because mama Berry will yell at her.
Cohort finally got a literature round and they crushed it! Spirits were low ever since last weeks "Texas" answer almost got Seth kicked off the team.
I tried to sabotage E=MC Hammer by telling them Costa Rica was an island. Which it's not. Unless you count the island off Costa Rica where Jurassic Park is located.
Not His Birthday, John just wants free drinks finally gave me their team number today, suspiciously also on a day they placed on the winners' board.
Wallets in the house! It never seizes to amaze me how they torture themselves by coming to trivia every week. Especially if other teams get points that Chris feels they haven't earned. Grumpiness level 6/10.
I'm coming up on my one year anniversary of hosting King Trivia at OB's, and I'm pleased to confirm that Hootie and the Blowfish will remain on the weekly playlist.
In case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight

Photos ruin the experience. Or so I tell myself.
Scores were locked in close at the end of round 6. Only a controversial triple or nothing separated the men from the mice (or women from girl mice)
Chris was at a 10/10 grumpiness factor, which has only been matched on maybe one other occasion. Fairly certain Tiffany had nightmares as well.
Cohort won the chili cheese fries round on a phone a friend LOTR question.
E=MC Hammer crushed the Andre question, and somehow stormed into a second place finish. All that time in the nunnery was well spent.
Paddy Cake were torn on which insulting team name to use, and despite my best efforts, managed to pull off the win.
Trouble in Paradise brought all their friends again and snuck into a 3rd place finish despite no math questions.
Lots of drinks, lots of thinks, if you didn't win then your team stinks.
