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.

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 ...

Bethany Blues - Let's Do Trivia Blurb - 6/19/25

Bethany Blues: We had a packed house with nearly 20 teams (whew!) join in the fun this week. Off Center, Sextupuss and New Neighbors all scored OTB extra points for their responses. It was a close match due to a surprisingly low-scoring game. Everyone was struggling. *draw a picture of Sunny the Smilin' Sun on the Round 2/Question 1 response (6/26/25) to score bonus points* At Halftime, New Neighbors held a narrow lead over a tie between Bad Girls and Sextupuss, followed by another tie between Master Naturalists and D-town, who were followed by yet a 3-way tie. The top eight teams covered by just 3 points. The second half really shook up the running order, favoring a few teams, challenging others. Going into the Final Bonus, Dr. Zoom was just ahead of D-town, Sextupuss, Houston-We Have An Answer, then a tie between New Neighbors and Master Naturalists. Only one team correctly answered the Final Bonus, scoring the victory! Final Top 5 Results: 1) Amer...

JD Shuckers - Let's Do Trivia Blurb - 11/8/23

The Blurb is Back, Baby! Bethany Blues: We had a fantastic turnout with a baker's dozen of teams joining this week's game. Tom Brady French Kisses His Son snagged the OTB extra point and ran at the front for much of the early rounds, but then tripped late in the half allowing a couple other teams past. *draw a new moon in the night sky on the Round 2/Question 1 response for bonus points*. At Halftime, The Animals held the top spot over Fab Five, Underage Thinkers, Dr. Zoom, then a tie between Off Center and Prime Hookers. The Animals maintained their momentum throughout the second half, holding off the advances of Tom Brady French Kisses His Son and Dr. Zoom. Going into the Final Bonus, The Animals were still on top of the pile over Dr. Zoom, Tom Brady French Kisses His Son, Prime Hookers and Underage Thinkers. Only one team correctly answered the Final Bonus, scoring the victory! Final Top 5 Results: 1) Dusty Crabs 2) The Animals 3) Dr. Zoom ...
