Cowtown Brewing Co. was buzzing Tuesday night as teams packed the taproom for another wild game of PubGuys Trivia. The energy was high, pints were flowing, and the mouthwatering aroma of Smokin’ Jays BBQ Tacos filled the room. It was the perfect atmosphere for competition—lively, loud, and full of friendly rivalry. Cowtown never disappoints, and neither did tonight’s crowd.
We kicked off Round 1 with a tight spread. Hot Tequila came out swinging with a strong 7 points, taking the early lead. 3 Beers and Baby and Smartinis trailed just behind with 6 and 5 points respectively, while The Waterboys, Omaha Omaha, Indecisive Tots, White Cane Racers, Spooning Leads to Forking, and No Folk And Chance were all within striking distance. It was clear early that no team planned on backing down.
Round 2 kept the tension high. Hot Tequila continued to hold the lead with a total of 13 points, showing consistency across the board. The Waterboys, Omaha Omaha, and Smartinis were hanging tight, each scoring steady 5s and 4s to stay in the hunt. Meanwhile, 3 Beers and Baby and White Cane Racers hit a bit of a slowdown, opening the door for other teams to creep closer. But what really stood out was how the entire room stayed locked in—every question drew cheers, groans, and shouts of “We knew that!” Team spirit was absolutely alive.
Then came Round 3—a turning point. The Waterboys and Omaha Omaha both crushed this round with massive 11-point performances, instantly reshuffling the leaderboard. The crowd felt the momentum shift. Hot Tequila held on as best they could, but their 5 points this round pulled them back into the pack. Suddenly, the top positions were anyone’s game. This was classic Cowtown competition—lead changes, bold guesses, and scoreboard suspense.
Rounds 4 and 5 continued that rollercoaster. Omaha Omaha put up strong numbers to challenge for the top, while The Waterboys kept a steady rhythm, answering confidently and keeping calm under pressure. Indecisive Tots, Smartinis, and Spooning Leads to Forking stayed competitive, each pushing through the tough mid-game question curve. Meanwhile, White Cane Racers surged in Round 6 with an impressive 8-point finish that turned heads.
But the final decisive push came in Round 6 and the Bonus. The Waterboys delivered a commanding finish—dropping 8 points in Round 6 and securing 3 more in the Bonus to lock in the win. Their comeback from a modest Round 1 to first place was a clinic in consistency and cool heads. Hot Tequila and Omaha Omaha battled to the very end, ultimately tying for second place with 35 points each, meaning we had a tie breaker question coming up. With 10 seconds on the clock, 1 player from Hot Tequila and Omaha Omaha faced off to see who would break the tie and take 2nd place. Congrats to Hot Tequila on missing the answer by only 2 and taking 2nd place! 3 Beers and Baby and Smartinis rounded out a strong middle of the pack.
The room was loud, competitive, friendly, and absolutely full of fun—just the way trivia should be. And yes, copious amounts of cold beer and BBQ tacos only made it better.
Final Standings:
1st Place – The Waterboys (43 points)
2nd Place – Hot Tequila (35 points)
3rd Place – Omaha Omaha (35 points)
