Wheel House – Let's Do Trivia - 8 June 2023

Happy End to the School Year Trivia Students!

It's Adam covered under a mountain of late assignments to grade before the end of the year. Let's recap last Thursday's Let's Do Trivia match at The Wheel House Beer Garden. There was not a real theme for the questions.

53 players on 14 teams had their eyes on the top prize of $65 Wheel House gift certificate for first place, $25 second place Wheel House cash (because we had more than 50 players), and a $10 third place certificate.


On Round 2 Question 1 for a bonus 3 points next match, draw a giraffe.

Teams needed a round or two to settle into their own as many points were dropped from tough questions in the early rounds. After halftime, only five points separated the top five teams from each other. The final question was a tough one for many teams with only two providing the correct order of when certain things were invented. Wheel Deal Sex Appeal finished in first place so we all know that prize rolls over to next week. Newer team Snuppets finished in second place and won $25 Wheel Hosue and Wild Wicked Women earned $10 Wheel House cash for finishing third place for the second week in a row.

Here are your final rankings:

13th: DWC Eagles

12th: Breezy Sleazies

11th: Crazy 8s

10th: Who Dat

9th: Your Mom, Dear Watson

8th: Pints AND Pups

7th: Wino Combo

6th: Does QUIZMO regret that BBQ in the Quebec Woods

5th: Dickens Cider

4th: Low Expectations

3rd:  Wild Wicked Women

2nd: Sluppets

1st: Wheel Deal Sex Appeal



First place prize next week will be a $105 Wheel House gift certificate since the house team finished first. Teams that arrive before 6pm are able to receive an extra $10 added to the top prize if they happen to win the match. Arrive early to find out the one song played between 6:00 and 6:30 before the game starts that will give you an answer during the first half round with either the song title or the artist.


Have an awesome weekend lads!


Best,


Adam

Wheel House - Let's Do Trivia - 15 May 2025

Happy new week trivia players, Have you taken a look in the night's sky recently? How's that Moon looking? If you didn't join us last week at the Wheelhouse for Let's do Trivia, you probably have no idea what I am talking about. But if you were in attendance, you know I'm referring to our big theme revolving around our Lunar friend. That's right, many questions dealing with the Moon (and some people with the surname Moon) were giving players a run for their money. Completely unplanned, the Moon theme fit as last Thursday was our first time of the season with the tent taken down. We had great weather for it. The crowd was light-ish with 27 players on 10 teams playing for the top prizes of $40 Wheelhouse Cash for first place and our second place prize of $10 Wheel House cash . Some of the questions with the Moon theme came easy to teams, others well... not so much. We saw a lower scoring first half and then we saw a brutal second half. Round five was tough fo...

Wheel House - Let's Do Trivia - 1 May 2025

Hello trivia brothers and sisters ! Let's go through our weekly recap of this past Thursday's Let's Do Trivia match at The Wheelhouse Beer Garden . It was a great crowd of 37 players on 10 teams playing for the top prizes of $50 Wheelhouse Cash for first place and our second place prize of $10 Wheel House cash . We had a big theme to most of the questions. We were asking about things to do with siblings, brothers, and sisters. Just like the previous week, this match saw lower scoring than normal in our first half of the game. Coming out of halftime, Raven Lunatics held first place with 35 points.   Wino Combo and Wheel Deal Sex Appeal were tied for second place with 34 points. Dare I say the second half got slightly easier? Points were still dropped but I believe every team got at least a 6 pointer correct in each round. Entering the final question , Wheel Deal Sex Appeal held the top spot with 69 (nice) points. Wino Combo were right behind them with 67 points. ...

Wheel House - Let's Do Trivia - 17 July 2025

Good day week Trivia teams, Let's do a quick look back to last Thursday night's Let's Do Trivia match at the Wheelhouse.  47 players on 9 teams joined us to beat the heat and beat other teams for the top prizes of $50 Wheelhouse Cash for first place and $10 Wheel House cash for second  place. There wasn't a larger theme throughout the match, but some questions did have an Australian touch to them. There were also a few Bee Gees related questions, even though I would contend they are not Australian and only spent a part of their career down under.  As is usual, most teams had a successful first half of the match. After our Bee Gees halftime question, we had many point totals that were close together in our rankings.  My Personal Favorites  led with 42 points. Followed as closely as you can get was  Why So Serious with 41 points. Wino Combo  was in third place with 39 points. Like I always say though, every team top to bottom still were in playgoing into the se...
