After last week's four tiebreakers, I was hoping I'd be free from tiebreakers for a while. Instead, it was more of the same this week, but we'll get to that in a second. In stark contrast to last week's intimate affair, this week saw a mighty and rambunctious crowd. The opening game saw I PLC What You Did There run away with a five point victory over the newcomers from Watson. The Mouseaholics finished a few spots back but would come storming to the top of the standings in the second game. As folks were enjoying their 10 Barrel Joe IPA along with summer-themed music, the Power Hour charged ahead. With the help of apparently extensive knowledge of the line of succession to the British crown, The Mouseaholics made up significant ground in the final round to end the game tied with none other than It Burns When I PLC. Yes, this meant another tie-breaker, and since the only question that seemed to bring out different answers dealt with islands, it seemed only appropriate to ask about the number of islands in Canada. After the scores were tallied and the sing-along to Bohemian Rhapsody had concluded, mercifully, It Burns When I PLC had once again edged out The Mouseaholics in the Power Hour tiebreaker. And appropriately enough, Daisy and Quiz in My Pants finished tied for 3rd. Sheesh, what is it with you guys and ties?!
Congratulations to our winners! Now, don't forget to follow us on all the major social networking sites, particularly Instagram and Twitter. That's important because each week that you play trivia and take a picture of your team and using #WOBArlingtonTX & #UpShow on either Twitter or Instagram, it will post to the tv in the bar. Once I see your beautiful faces on screen, I'll give you guys a bonus point. Now, for your bonus point opportunity for next week....
Give me the distance in furlongs from Arlington, TX to Anchorage, AK.
Cheers!
