Why do we play trivia? I think it's so that we can strive to answer the tough questions of human existence. Questions such as "if none of us look attractive when we eat why do so many of us go out for dinner on first dates?". All the contestants in tonights trivia showdown showed a great amount of drive to answer these tough questions, but this night of trivia ended with victory for team Black Mamba. Although this night of trivia started out being all fun and games it ended with a tie breaker that would have induced a bad habit of nail biting in even the best of us. At the end of round 7 team All Transplants and team Avocado Girls both had a score of 21 points which put them both in 2nd place. This meant that we had to have a tie breaker to decide who would be taking home the 2nd place prize (because there are some times in life where saying "it's all tied up at fun to fun" just doesn't cut it). In the end team All Transplants surpassed team Avocado Girls to take home the second place prize. But all of our contestants went home knowing that they had spent their night with good friends, good food, and most importantly with great trivia questions.

The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat at Fountainhead on Tuesday night. Veteran team Ask My Balls played strong but cautious, winning despite not using a Double-or-Nothing. The only Double-or-Nothing from the Night came from the Iceholes, who missed a perfect Round 6 by one question and could have won the game outright, but had to settle for third.

Game Rank Team # Team Name Score Teams Beaten Team Beat Average
1 Ask My Balls 50 4 1.000

3 Iceholes 35 2 0.500

A star-studded evening of trivia as the Fountainhead was graced by Quizmaster David all the way up from L.A. It was a competitive night all around, until team Parking Sucks used the only double-or-nothing of the evening and opened up a huge lead in Round 3, "You Don't Know Jackson" (thus Samuel L.'s smiling face) KC's Fan Club and Breakaway nipped at their heels all evening, while newcomer Detroit Red almost stole third place despite joining in round 4. All in all, great trivia on the still-new Tuesday night time slot.
