Bethany Blues – Let’s Do Trivia – 03/09/23

THE RECAP

Where does the term Swizzle Stick come from? Who won the last World Baseball Classic? And why doesn't the category Deceased Accordionists come up more often? Just some of the questions we pondered tonight.

 

An insanely close half time break at the top of the board! Underage Thinkers had 38 points, Off Center had 37 points, and Swamp Donkeys, Submission, & Trivia Date Night Returns were all tied with 36 points. Going into the Final Question, Trivia Date Night Returns held the lead with now a three-way tie for Second between Off Center, Submission, and Ken Allen. Late joiner R&B was the only team to get the Final Question right, but it wasn't enough to move them up far enough in the rankings. Off Center and Ken Allen both wagered zero and had to settle the tie breaker to determine First and Second Place. How many Lawrence Welk singles made it to the "Top 40" in the U.S.? Off Center was the closest and won First, Ken Allen settled for Second, and Underage Thinkers snuck into Third with a smart wager.

 

THE SUPER SECRET ART BONUS for March 16th  

Apparently, March 16th is National Everything You Do Is Right Day. So for this week's super secret art bonus (and 3 points), on Round 2 Question 1, draw whatever you want. Extra point if you add color. (I will accept hand drawn pics for the art bonus, bring them up during or before Round 2 Question 1)

Bethany Blues - Let's Do Trivia Blurb - 5/14/25

Bethany Blues: An excellent crowd filled with some familiar faces showed up to join this week's game. Just Cheers & Off Center both scored OTB extra points for their responses. The game didn't play into anyone's particular strengths, so it was a tight match over the early rounds. *draw a picture of a parking meter on the Round 2/Question 1 response (5/22/25) to score bonus points* At Halftime, Just Cheers held a narrow lead over a tie between Off Center and Underage Thinkers, then another tie between Bethany Blues and Big Cookie. Off Center came out of the half with a head of steam to take over the lead and ran at the front until being pipped by Zoom Mini as we entered the Final Bonus. The lead duo were followed by Titanic Swim Team, Just Cheers and Big Cookie. Only a single team correctly answered the Final Bonus. Final Top 5 Results: 1) Zoom Mini 2) Off Center 3) Underage Thinkers 4) Just Cheers 5) Titanic Swim Team ...

Blurb For Game played on 10-30-2025

It was great being back at Bethany Blues for Let's Do Trivia last Thursday for ERIC THE GREAT!!! People are always fun and friendly. It's even good to see Adele!  It was a big crowd last week with lots of energy and competition. Teslas4Putin started off with a great On Time Bonus Question answer. However, by the time we got thru Halftime, Confederacy Of Dunces lead the pack. After Halftime, Teslas4Putin got to work at it again, and, lead the field as we went into Final Bonus. But, with a big wager and the correct answer, Off Center pulled off the win for the 1st place prize. Threes Company took 2nd place, and, Teslas4Putin took the 3rd place prize. The Nacho Prize (cuz this was "Not Cho Game") was scooped up by JS. Enjoy this week and I hope the next time Eric needs a sub, they call me.   THIS WEEK'S "I READ THE BLURB IN THE NEWSLETTER' QUESTION IN ROUND 2 QUESTION 1, write "WELCOME BACK ERIC, BUT WE WANT RICH!" for 3 extra points!!  S...

Bethany Blues - Let's Do Trivia Blurb - 10/9/25

Bethany Blues: We had a great crowd filled with a few newcomers for our game this week. Off Center, Aquadummies and Low Expectations all scored OTB extra points for their responses. It was an incredibly low-scoring game throughout the early rounds, and only three correct responses for the Halftime Bonus across the entire field. Yeah, this was a tough one… *draw a picture of Betelgeuse on the Round 2/Question 1 response (10/16/25) to score bonus points* At the halfway mark, Low Expectations and Dr. Zoom shared the top spot over Nobody Cares About Ian, Parents Night Out, then a tie between Off Center and Underage Thinkers. Dr. Zoom posted a flawless second half to take over at the front while the rest of the field jockeyed for position. They were trailed by Low Expectations, Nobody Cares About Ian, then a 3-way tie between Off Center, Underage Thinkers and Parents Night Out as we headed into the Final Bonus. Only one team correctly answered the Final Bonus. Fi...
