Nicola’s - Let's Do Trivia Blurb - 4/30/24

Nicola's: Little did we expect when we kicked off this week's game that we would be witnessing history in the making. About Faces snagged the OTB extra point and then proceeded to run the table throughout the early rounds. *draw a picture of a margarita on the Round 2/Question 1 response to score bonus points* At Halftime, About Faces was rocking a perfect halftime score and held a substantial lead over Too Young To Win, closely followed by a 4-way tie between Landing Crew, Boli Express, 3gals and StuAndBunny. About Faces continued to maintain their momentum during the second half, narrowly avoiding the "perfect halftime score curse", albeit thanks to a late game do-over. Going into the Final Bonus, About Faces held an insurmountable lead over the field, in fact they had already accomplished this feat by the end of Round 5. The question then being: would they even bother or *dare* to wager any points for the Final Bonus?

Several teams correctly answered this week's (Level 4) Final Bonus, but not everyone wagered points. And we needed a tie-breaker to determine our 2nd Place prize winner.

Final Top 5 Results:
1) About Faces (correctly answered the Final Bonus for a Perfect Game! However, they did not wager any points, which could have catapulted them into rare triple-digit territory).
2) Does
3) Anyone
4) Really
5) Care?

*Have a Merry Christmas! We'll be back on New Year's Eve* Nicola's: We had a baker's dozen of teams join our game this week.
