Spring on in to our Monday Night Goodness!
Mother Nature seems a bit bi polar lately, nothing like seeing 80 degrees then just a couple days later there’s snow in the forecast! Just never know what will happen around here- and that goes for our trivia games! Check out the recap here.
Very relaxed night here at DRP even though we were competing with some major sports events tonight, the late tip-off for tonight’s NCAA Championship, we also had Opening Day for MLB as well. It was a great game nonetheless, although the MKS question and oligopoly threw a number of real good teams tonight. Here are the results:
Del Ray Dummies in 1st
MSC in 2nd
HR PuffnStuff in 3rd
Our first category for next week is the Pittsburgh Pirates! ~ Ronnie

We had a packed house tonight at the Roast House for Pour House Trivia! New teams, veteran teams, and traveling teams alike crammed in tight and battled it out hard in a tough set!
Highlights of the Night:
In “Wait-What-Now?”: Guys, there are only a couple professional sports leagues. NASA however, is not one of them. That would be our space program…Come on now!
In “Unexpected-Whiffs”: Really?! You guys don’t know about the Tiki Room?! The Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room?! All the birds sing words and the flowers croon in the Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room! How do you guys not know this?!
In “And-What-The-Hell-Is-That?!”: I’ve never heard of either of those terms, let alone in regards to lobster. What are they? What do they mean? Someone tell me, because all of you guys seemed to know it!
With a tricksy tiebreaker causing a last second upset, we had our podium.
In third place, sneaking up with a tiebreaker win, Southpaw Fish!
In second place, Cher’s Zombie Army!
In first place, Multiple Scorgasms!
Great game everyone! Next week we’ll kick things off with the Netherlands! Study up, and we’ll see you next time!
Until then,

Today was a good day; not only was it trivia day, but also Opening Day for the O’s AND the NCAA Tournament Championship day. Just a great day to be a fan of sports and trivia. We even had a final question tonight about the MLB, which was definitely fitting.
We opened with a question about Darkwing Duck, which asked teams to identify the city the show is set in, a city called St. Canard. I liked the question about Cleveland which mentioned their inability to win a title in any sport in the last 50 years; truly a factory of sadness. I was extremely impressed with Rice Rice Baby for knowing the first MVP winner for the MLS, Carlos Valderrama.
Halftime asked teams to identify the famous fathers of different celebrities, as well as answering questions where the answers had ‘MOR’ in there somewhere. In the second half we asked about an upcoming event that sounds amusing, with Homer Simpson appearing in a live-action segment to answer questions from social media; that should be interesting to watch.
As I said, tonight’s final was about Major League Baseball, and asked for the only State where there are two teams that have never won a World Series. Several teams managed to get to Texas, with the teams being the Astros and the Rangers. Thanks to some crafty wagering, we ended up needing a tiebreaker, and winning the tiebreaker for third place was The Cobras! (Sorry Rice Rice Baby, you guys played well though!). Second place went to a newcomer, Kids Eat Free On Tuesdays, nice work! The win tonight, however, went to Danny Glover who held a sizable lead throughout! Congrats! Next week we start with a question on Wrestlemania, in honor of last night’s festivities! So I’ll see you all next week!
Until next time,

Season XIII is rolling along at Spider Kelly’s in Arlington, as High School Prom took down another win to make it four in a row! They were one of just three teams to pick up points on the final question, and it paid off nicely. Second went to PC Principals, with third going to Kitten Mittens. Next week begins with a question on the U.S. Supreme Court. ~ Matt
