& teams enter, but only one leaves with top trivia honors! This week saw a few exciting lead changes, with newcomers Turtle Power struggling to fight off a late rally from Ask My Balls and falling a little short in the end. Scores were buoyed by strong pop culture knowledge of fictional castles and journalists, and unfortunately, new team Supreme Lead's aspirational naming convention didn't pan out for them on the score sheet, with AMB taking first, the Turtles in second, and robot overlords Automating America in third.

Pow! Off to the races at The Fountainhead on 4/2, with warhorses Ask My Balls, Automating America! and Ladies & The Tramps doubling and mostly not letting up for the night...

Mostly!

After a difficult Round 4 Guess Who for everyone, Aunt Becky Got Me Into College doubled where it counts, with a 20-point Round 5 vaulting them into the lead by a hair. If not for a pair of successful 11th-hour doubles from Ask My Balls and Automating America in Round 7, things would have turned out quite differently!

A great turnout tonight with 9 teams competing, including a gamely attempt from passers-by You're a Quizard Harry! We're starting to get quite the stable of regulars!

Pat's back next week!

(Note: Ask My Balls had four members tonight, two of which ducked out to the next trivia contest before I could snap a team photo!)
