Let me say from the outset that yes we did flub up one of the questions in the Bingo round. Michael Jordan retired from basketball 3 times in 1994, 1999 and 2003. Damn you Michael and your ridiculous basketball prowess!

Okay I feel better now that I got that off my chest. Despite that little dispute, all in all we had a great, fun quiz at one of our newest venues at the Maiden. It was a small, but enthusiastic crowd! Add a little COMEDY to the quiz and you can’t help but get some good chuckles.

Team Hardcore shot out to the lead right away with a good score on Bingo round, plus the Bingo bonus. I have to mention that I enjoyed putting on an English accent for one of the questions about the British sitcom Blackadder. I know it helped!!

All the teams did well on the A to Z, too. The handouts were fun and some of those stumper riddles were killer!

In the end it came down to some nifty wagering and a correct answer on the final challenge question, this time an audio clue. I played the theme song of a classic sitcom - One Day at a Time. (Valerie Bertinelli in the house, yo!)

Congrats Manchego Magic! They were the only ones to answer correctly on the final challenge.
Team Maiden snatched 2nd by wagering well (or perhaps by Hardcore wagering less than well).

Thanks for a fun night!
