Valentine’s Trivia

monday was looking to be a snowy night, but that didn’t stop players from making it out to enjoy an evening of trivia!  there were some new faces, and a couple of players floating around and joining new teams. 

out of the gates this looked to be a fairly matched contest, with teams staying neck and neck during the opening rounds.  by the time the third round ended, Four Teams were tied for the top spot.   they had battled through questions such as . . .

• What is the nickname for the farmbelt region of the United States? – The Heartland
• What two celebrities have been chosen to host this year’s academy awards?
• What smurf has a tattoo of a heart on his arm?
• What chemical did the ancients call brimstone?
• What instrument appears on a guiness label?

and the final round was going to show whether one team had enough to break away from the pack.  before the final results were tabulated, there were a couple of prizes to be given out.  after all, it was Valentine’s Day Trivia

every team took home something.  and, a couple of lucky players took home a little something extra.  Cheryl did well when she was given the chance to choose from the magic envelope pile.  It wasn’t the big $50 winner, but it was the next best thing – a crisp $20 bill.

someone from the crew in the back won the Ski Passes at Jack Frost Big Boulder.  they weren’t as photogenic as last week’s ski pass winner . . .

yes, it seems like Bob and Steve are on a roll!!

Next week brings another dose of the same mix of silliness and competition.  the start time remains at 7PM, the chicken sandwiches will be in the kitchen, and Larry will be at the mike.  the only thing that changes is the beer special!
