$1 for the first person to write a hit song with Wednesday in the title! What a night for Pour House Pub Trivia!
An especially exciting night of Pour House pub trivia, as we added a new member to the family! Welcome to The Tavern in Olney!
Always an exciting night when you can get more people playing our SUPERB brand of trivia – and it was packed houses at our other venues as well!
Totally NOT True Facts Of The Night!
- The green color of the Mystery Machine actually comes from a spilled bongwater incident
- Rejected Five Guys names include “We shared a womb” and “BroBurgers”
- DiGiorno’s original, rejected slogan: “Tastes slightly less like cardboard than competing brands!”
Let’s see how it went tonight!
Atlantic Grille – Urbana, MD
Barefoot Bernies – Hagerstown, MD
Bennigan’s – Clarksburg, Maryland
The Cellar Door – Frederick, MD
Hold on, I’m gonna spell this… No wait, it gets better… Oh Cellar, thank you for your patience tonight. At least we all got a good laugh out of it? I do enjoy you all, thank you.
All joking aside we had an awesome night! Close scores, cheering, singing, lots of laughing and even a come from behind placing! Donner Party were the only ones to get the final and that catapulted the duo in to third! Second went to Grab a Straw, you suck! and first… by one point.. holding on by their teeth… Team Wednesday! A win is a win, and they want to start next weeks magic with a little Personality Disorder question.. Bring all your imaginary friends and I’ll see you in the Cellar!

Fast Eddie’s – Fairfax, Virginia
The Olney Tavern – Olney, MD
Well what a heck of a night to kick things off at The Tavern!
We had lots of VERY enthusiastic teams involved – it turned into a bit of a cheering competition between our top few teams, which is always fun to be a part of!
My favorite wrong answers of the night:
Mario of Super Mario Bros. fame’s last name? Batali!
The Scooby Doo Gang’s vehicle? Not the Mystery Machine…but the Popemobile!
I also got the first drawing-as-an-answer I’ve ever received, which threw me for a loop.
Our game got VERY interesting on the final question, knocking almost everyone off the leaderboard!
In third place, #Dumbasses!
In second place, I Just Quizzed in My Pants!
And your winners, thanks to getting the final question right…We’re Here For The Beer! They took home the $50 CASH PRIZE for a new venue!
They chose the…interesting?…category of Sexually Transmitted Diseases!
Want to know what’s not fun? Google image searching that phrase. Oof. I did you all a favor with this photo.
T. J. Stone’s – Alexandria, VA
It had been about a year or so since we saw one of our original teams, Gravity Flight, join the rest of the crowd of T. J. Stomne’s for a round of trivia. And their return to the game could not have gone any better. They kept it close all night, snuck into the lead in round four, and hung on for the victory. Great job! Hopefully, it won’t be anoth year before your next game. She and She and Him also returned after a short hiatus to earn second, with Winners in Life rounding out the top three. Next week starts with a question on Aviation. ~ Matt
Valley Grill – Middletown, MD
Packed house tonight at the Valley Grill Sports Bar here in Middletown, and the game had a climactic ending!
Southpaw Fish managed to pull out the win among the various wagers flying about from several teams in the running. Brain Freeze rolled into second with their strategic wager, and Fat Kids are Hard to Kidnap took down third with a final wager of zero.
C’mon back next week, our first category is Disney’s The Jungle Book.
