Wheel House - Let's Do Trivia - 14 December 2023

Happy Holidays Trivia Teams, 

Adam here to unwrap this past Thursday's Let's Do Trivia match at the Wheel House. Just like the week prior, we had 41 players on nine teams blitzen for the larger top prize of $80 Wheel House cash.

We went all in on the Christmas holiday with trivia questions based around the festive season and Christmas songs that will not make you hate your life. It was a tougher than normal first half of the match. The halftime question boosted the scores thankfully with an average of about 38ish points for most teams. Coming out of the first half Wheel Deal Sex Appeal and Late to the Party were tied first place with 41 points each. Wino Combo enjoyed third place with 40 points.

Teams showed up strong in the second half. Heading into the final, Wheel Deal Sex Appeal and G-Unit were tied with 75 points each. In second place was Late to the Party with 69 points.

Five of the nine teams provided the correct order to the final question. G-Unit answered correctly and wagered 20 points to finish first with 95 points. Late to the Party also enjoyed some glory by getting the correct order and wagered 20 points to land in second place with 89 points.

For a 3-point bonus next week, draw the best gift you got this Christmas.

Here are your final standings:

9th: Your Mom, Dear Watson

8th: I Saw QUIZMO Empty the Barmans Sack

7th: The Christmas Cams

6th: Pints & (AN ACTUAL!) Pup

5th: Wheel Deal Sex Appeal

4th: Wild Wicked Women

3rd: Wino Combo

2nd: Late to the Party

1st: G-Unit Wheel Deal Sex Appeal

We are playing trivia this week on Thursday December 28th! As always earn an extra $10 if you win first prize AND at least one member of your team arrives before 6pm. We are going back to the normal playlist with possible hints so listen for that song title or artist answer in the setlist between 6pm and 6:30pm.

For a 3-point bonus next week, draw the best gift you got this Christmas.

Hope everyone enjoys the time with family and friends as much as I enjoy my weekly time with all of you!

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...
