It Bobsleigh Time! Quiz Bowl Sunday!

A final reminder that Quiz Bowl II, Milwaukee's sports and pop culture trivia tournament is this upcoming Sunday January 29th! Register your team now!

Six teams were split by just six points on Tuesday night at Whiskey Bar, with three ties as well! Crazy amount of gray matter in the house! And questions about four Jamaican bobsledders were flying about all over the place!

Funniest team name went to Pull Up A Lawn Chair....I'll have my penis grill us up some burgers...

Don't know if there's a hidden meaning in that name, but either way he's a clever dick.

A tiebreaker was needed to find a winner on the evening, with two teams ending on 47 points.
After The Divorce Seal Will Be Scarred For Life just lost out to come second...

That's a bit harsh, or is it?!

With But You Ain't Got No Legs Lt Dan taking home the top spot...

Next week Kev will host the quiz with an Eastern Bloc accent.

Until next time Milwaukee, drink while you think...

47 But you ain't got no legs Lt Dan

There is currently no league at this time

How the league works
Team scores over a predetermined number of weeks are accumulated in a table. The team with the highest cumulative score at the end of that period is crowned league champions and also wins an additional prize for its efforts.

Leagues vary in length, anywhere between 4-8 weeks. Each venue's league is independent of the next, as are the league prizes.

Your Team Name
During the league season it is advised that teams keep a consistent name from week-to-week in order for the Quizmaster to track scores. Teams playing under different names each week during a league will have their scores tallied separately.

Bye Weeks
Allowing flexibility, each venue grants so many bye weeks during its league. Under this rule, a team is allowed to miss so many weeks knowing they can still compete in the league. In the event that a team is present for the entire duration of the league their weakest scores are subtracted...

For example, over the course of an eight week league all team's are granted two bye weeks. If they miss two weeks they effectively score zero in their absence - but all team's will be judged on their six best results from the eight weeks of league play.

*Overall Score vs "Best Score"
The league table indicates each team's overall score and best score. Ultimately, the best score is all that matters as this score accounts for the bye week(s) allowed in the league. In some cases the overall score and best score may be the same depending on whether that team has missed a week (or more) of play.
