It’s STAR WARS TRIVIA at Irvine Improv and Umami Burger 7:15pm tonight!  HIGHLY RECOMMEND you reserve a table by calling:  949.396.1830

Hey people–BIG post today…points-wise for you, it’s a huge CHA-CHING!  You’ll see. And speaking of cha-ching, here’s last weeks winners!


And now…for tonight…

Super excited for tonight’s game!  I would describe the game as VERY challenging, yet entertaining. For MY teams–you know who you are and you know we have a “special” relationship–so YOU get some big clues…Billy Dee William’s Beer, Chewbacca’s family, The “Child’s” age, the “Old Fossil,” and last but not least, Luke’s red-headed wife!

That’s a HUGE Amount of points for you–if you do your homework. Oh…and YOU’RE WELCOME! It’s what you get if you’re one of MY teams.

Also, how about an EMAIL CLUE?!?!  War & Peace

No puzzle this week. You’ll get an 10 extra points if at least one team member wears an ugly Christmas sweater…and 20 extra points for a STAR WARS ugly Christmas sweater (not sweatshirt or t-shirt).  But not for BOTH–you get 10 or 20 extra, depending on your wardrobe.

So, THAT’S IT!  See you tonight my friends…and may the QUIZ be with you!

Hi there teams!  I am glad you are a part of this fun-filled fiasco called OC Trivia and love, love, love putting on games for you.  I know you love it too–especially when you WIN like these teams from last week!

AWESOME JOB Teams.  We had a pretty crazy, different kind of game last week, but it was a lot of work so….don’t expect that very often ha ha!  

Okay, this week…The theme is, we’re gonna set sail on the S. S. Super!  No, there are no sailing or travel questions. And no, this doesn’t really help you much!  But this will…we’ve got Name That Tune, History, and 2 Picture Rounds!  

Let’s move on to the Round 1 Question 5 clue shall we?  This We’ll Defend

And here’s a fun riddle. Tell me the answer before the game starts (you can email me, too!) and earn 10 points! We all know about a ship in the bottle, but how does one get a full sized (and fully intact) apple or pear in a bottle without breaking the bottle?

Are you feeling the holiday spirit yet?  Nah, me neither. So, we’ll save the holiday themed trivia for later…Tonight, though, is going to be EPIC–one of the BEST games I’ve ever put together! The question is, which teams will prevail? Will it be any of these amazing teams who won last week?

 

Congrats to our winning teams from last week.  It was a TOUGH game, challenging, but you all made your Trivia Host proud.

This week, we don’t have a unifying theme, but we’ve got Famous Faces, a Puzzle Round, a unique Music Round, and a Video Wildcard!  It’s a great night to play, so get your teams together and let’s get quizzing!

Here’s your clue for round 1 question 5:  Maugrim

Tell me an answer to this riddle before the game starts, and earn an extra 10 points:  A man woke up one morning to find his car had a completely flat tire.  Still, he drove that car 50 miles to work, then drove another 50 miles home in the same car, the one with the flat tire.

Can’t wait to see you all tonight!

What an awesome night we had last week!  The competition was fierce but there were no migraines to be found–my trivia isn’t THAT difficult.  And maybe a little TOO easy for these winning teams!

Free Team Trivia TONIGHT At 7:15PM, OC Trivia LIVE! at Umami Burger Irvine at the Irvine Spectrum!

Well, my friends, I hope summer is treating you well. After binge-watching Stranger Things 3, I feel like I’ve accomplished one of my goals…have some down-time over this summer!  Guess who else is well-accomplished? These WINNERS from last week!

Way to go, teams!  I hope you can make it back for another exciting night of brain-wracking trivia (well, it’s not that bad usually). Tonight we are bringing out the full on July Theme with Famous Faces, a Puzzling Wildcard, Sports (yes, actual sports trivia), and another twist on the Music Round (no “name that tune” or “name the artist”). Plus, the non-themed rounds 1 and 6, which are General Knowledge questions–and no, there are none about the military rank of General, so don’t try and be cute…I know how you people are.

So, let’s get to your clue for round 1 question 5:  The Curling Target!

I give out bonus points to your team if you try to answer this puzzle before we start the game:  WMGGW = The Beatles wipe away the tears so it doesn’t get ruined.

Hmm, what’s the answer?  Try to figure it out and I’ll give you 10 bonus points!

(psst: notice I said try to figure it out…any attempt(s) will earn you a max 10 points).

Hey, I can’t wait to see you tonight…But I guess I will have to! See you soon!!!
