On a brisk November evening at Keyworth Brewing Co., the trivia energy was as electric as the holiday buzz in the air. The Angry Irishman returned to host another memorable night, welcoming back fan-favorite teams School bus #68, Brew Krew, and The Elder Millennials. But the night was spiced up with an influx of new teams eager to flex their trivia muscles before diving into the chaos of Thanksgiving. It was clear from the get-go: this was going to be a night to remember.
Game 1: A Photo Finish
The first game of the night was a rollercoaster from start to finish. Newcomers Guys & Gals set the tone early, storming through the first two rounds with impressive accuracy, racking up 13 points. But the competition was fierce. The aptly named Table 1&2 stayed close on their heels with 10 points, and seven other teams—including School bus #68 and Killer Rabbit—were tied with 8 points each. The buzz around the room? “This one’s going to be a nail-biter.”
Round 3 proved to be the ultimate decider. The Elder Millennials, with a burst of trivia prowess, scored an impressive 9 points in the final round, bringing their total to 21. The room collectively held its breath to see if it was enough for victory. But Guys & Gals, steady under pressure, managed 5 points in the last stretch, clinching the win with 22 points.
Brew Krew and Killer Rabbit rounded out the top five alongside Table 1&2, showing the depth of talent among the teams. This game was a warm-up for what was shaping up to be an unforgettable night.
Game 1 Winners:
1st Place: Guys & Gals
2nd Place: The Elder Millennials
Game 2: Anyone’s Game
If Game 1 was intense, Game 2 took things to a whole new level. The teams shuffled their strategies and hit the ground running. By the end of the second round, Did You Know? We Don’t Know and The Elder Millennials were tied for the lead with 11 points apiece, while School bus #68 and the whimsically named Bowser Shower were right behind with 10 points. Meanwhile, Blue Tailed Hawks and Killer Rabbit stayed within striking distance at 9 points.
As the game entered the pivotal Round 3, every team knew it was still anyone’s contest. The Elder Millennials, who were hungry to avenge their near-miss in Game 1, stumbled under the pressure, scoring only 1 point in the final round and dropping to seventh place. The excitement was palpable as School bus #68, Killer Rabbit, and Table 1&2 each clawed their way to 13 points, creating a three-way tie for fourth.
But the night wasn’t over yet. Killer Rabbit broke free from the pack, adding a crucial point to land in fourth place with 14 points. Meanwhile, Did You Know? We Don’t Know kept their heads in the game, finishing strong with 15 points to secure second place. The ultimate victors, however, were Bowser Shower, whose steady performance culminated in a six-point final round and a winning total of 16 points.
A Night to Remember
The margins were razor-thin in Game 2, with just a single point separating the top seven teams. The lively debates, groans of near-misses, and cheers for triumphs echoed through Keyworth Brewing Co., proving once again that trivia nights hosted by The Angry Irishman are not just games—they’re events.
As teams lingered after the final scores were announced, there was talk of rematches and strategies for next week. “If tonight taught us anything,” one participant quipped, “it’s that every question matters.” With such close finishes, the stage is set for another heated battle in the coming week.
Game 2 Winners:
1st Place: Bowser Shower
2nd Place: Did you know? We don’t know
I look forward to seeing you all next Thursday at Keyworth Brewing Co.!
Until then…
