Anybody want an Auntie Anne’s Pretzel? I’m headed to the food court after this Pour House Trivia Thursday!
July 18, 2014
Pour House pub quiz had a hell of a Thursday of live trivia!
We had six games going for you to get your trivia on and covered things like Auntie Anne’s Pretzles (SO BUTTERY), The Thin Red Line (great film!) and Clint Eastwood!
I have to give eternal props to Clint, who’s managed to get an entire career out of a single, solitary look! That’s solid, sir, 60 years+ of squinting!
Let’s go to the games!
Bunkers – Leesburg, Virginia
We had a lot of fun in the Bunker(s) tonight, hanging out, having fun and getting our trivia on!
There were a slew of teams in there tonight, including a few new faces – welcome to those folks!
There were so many wrong answers that made me laugh tonight, I am going to try to share them all!
- Stonehenge and Kiltz are Us are NOT the former and current locations of the British Open!
- The host of The Weakest Link is NOT: My Mother, Princess Diana OR Anne (scribble, scribble, scribble!)
- That classic story of Christmas Eve peril is NOT Ironic by Alanis Morissette
The Thundercats played over the limit, but did win the night!
In first, we had Team Spam!
In second, the Washington Foreskins!
And in third, Fat Guys in Little Coats! Bad time to turn heel, Zach!
The Thundercats chose Sailor Moon, here comes the boom for their first category!

Champion Billiards – Frederick, MD
Nothing like a bar full of pub trivia teams joining in a Happy Birthday sing-a-long – with cake, candles, presents, cards, and the whole nine yards! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you everyone! That meant a lot 🙂 I very much appreciate all of the well wishes!
We had a fantastic game of live trivia as well at Champions on this fine July 17th! And Horseshoes and Hand Grenades meant biz-ness! They leaped out in front and did not look back once! Very nice game H&H!
2nd and 3rd, however, was a different story! The tie breaker was the running time of The Hangover Part 3! Vitrifiers got it within 2 minutes! BUT…that was not good enough, as Latrilla and the Mossy Banks managed to NAIL IT! Congrats to Latrilla for 2nd Place and many props to Vitrifiers on the 3 spot!
Enjoy your weekend everyone. And next Thursday we will kick off the game with BEER MAKING TRIVIA. Oh yeah…!
Thank you again everyone, see you soon 🙂 dg
Fish Market – Alexandria, Virginia
Tonight we had a ton of new faces, and some old ones, fighting for the top spot. Going into the final we had two new teams holding down the top two spots: The Dream Team and Fuggie. Dream Team was in first for most of the game but after missing the final question, they dropped out of contention and the victory went to the Fuggie! Congrats guys, great game! 2nd place was a tie between Sic Semper Tyrannis and As a Boyfriend You Kind of Suck. Sic Semper wins on a tie breaker, Boyfriend taking 3rd. Good to see the new faces, hopefully we see you all again next week!
1st Place: Fuggie
2nd Place: Sic Semper Tyrannis
3rd Place:As a Boyfriend You Kind of Suck
Next week’s category:Patent Law
Guido’s – Frederick, MD
What a crazy game of live trivia tonight at Guido’s Speakeasy! I had a different team in 1st place after EVERY ROUND!!
After the final question, there could only be one winner and this is how tonight ended… moving from 4th to 3rd was T.N.C.!
Moving up from 3rd to 2nd was Ryan, Asian Ryan and Not Ryan! And moving from 2nd to game winners…. None Pizza with Left Beef!!
They chose the short lived T.V. show “Freaks and Geeks” for next weeks winners choice category, so study up and get out here to Guido’s next Thursday night!!

Main Street Oyster House -Bel Air, MD
Never a dull moment of live trivia at Main Street, four of our teams tonight have come in the first place slot recently so it was a real fight to the finish.
We are mistaken and Clever team name were neck in neck the whole game, then that final question shot newcomers Meat Tornado into the first place slot leaving We are Mistaken in second, and Clever Team Name in third place.
But no sore losers at Main Street, everyone cheered! It was a well done game. Next week it’s gonna be everyone’s favorite show about nothing, Seinfeld.

Quincy’s – Gaithersburg, Maryland
The Summer Fling Season is rolling right along at Quincy’s in Gaithersburg, and for the first time this summer, a team went back-to-back as I Just Quizzed My Pants took down another win after nailing a tough final question. Captain Awesome and the Wonder Friends took second, with the Spider Monkeys sneaking into third. Next week starts off with a question on the band 311. ~ Matt
