INTERESTING MOMENTS

We found out that our trivia was sufficiently interesting that a player put away their sewing to focus on the questions.

One player was so thrilled to hear Hamilton, Jamiroquai, and Crazy Rich Asians that she shook with glee on each of those audio clues so much that we thought she might be having a seizure.

And we had a record performance in a lightning round. After being the last player standing at the letter M in round 3, he proceeded to answer the final 13 letters perfectly to complete the lightning round.

We’ve seen that before, but at a time when we allowed a lot more passing, and in that case they only had to answer three more questions at the end.

The entire room, even people who weren’t playing trivia, ERUPTED in applause when Andy nailed the last question.

See you next week.

They won first place, then they won the jackpot, then they got booed. But in a good natured way.

You had plenty of advice for horror movie characters.

For f*ck’s sake put the lights on

Don’t take the golden eye out of the unnaturally large holy woman’s skull

Service your car regularly

Winter custodian at the Overlook Hotel might sound like a cool job, but…

Don’t read the tome bound in human skin

Ditch the high heels

Be the killer

If you kill someone, tell the cops

Sprint in a zig zag

Maybe don’t live alone in the woods

Call the cops

Never follow the scary sound

Never split up to cover more ground

Garlic necklace

Nuke it from orbit

Don’t be Jamie Lee Curtis

Don’t go in there

Don’t get a job at the mechatronics place where 5 children were murdered

Don’t f*ck in the forest

Don’t skinny dip with friends at night in a remote lake

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked for the European capitals represented by flags, and one team guessed Sydney.

Countries that border Romania? Bulgaria? Correct. Bolivia… nope.

Weight classes in boxing beginning with C? Surely Chonkyweight.

One team were such big Britney Spears fans, that they guessed “Oops I Did It Again” no less than 3 times, when we didn’t play it once.

See you next week.
