Happy Harbor – Let's Do Trivia - 28 December 2023 – BLURB (Final game, please read, important details inside)

Happy New Year Happy Harbor players!  Despite all of this 'happy', sadly this newsletter is for the final game played at Happy Harbor.

Scoring in the first half was plentiful, but even more so for O-Trivia Newton John.  They held a two-point lead over second place team and relative new comers The Lucky Ducks at the half time break.

While The Lucky Ducks stumbled a bit in the second half, another team of newcomers, Winner Winner Chicken Dinner, surged into second place heading into the final question, six points behind still leading O-Trivia Newton John.

The final question was a tough one and every one of teams failed to organize the named American patriots in their correct birth order.  This threw the results back onto betting strategy and it was Winner Winner Chicken Dinner that benefitted by only betting five points on the final while everyone else swung for the fences and missed with a twenty point bet.  Congrats to WWCD and well played all.

Once I have another venue lined up, I will compose additional Happy Harbor newsletter blurbs.  Please keep checking in weekly for updated information if and when available.  May 2024 be a Happy and Prosperous year for you and all you hold dear, Allen.

While we await news of another indoor venue, consider visiting nearby Wheel House Beer Garden in North Beach.  Reservations are recommended for this outdoor venue.  That game starts at 6 and is hosted by the wonderful Adam.  Don't be afraid of 'outdoor', they have a covered seating area with ample propane fire tables and overhead heating lamps.  It's an excellent vibe with great drink specials.  I'll be stopping by there for at least part of the game next week.  They do not have a kitchen but check with bar staff as they do allow food from specific nearby vendors.

Happy Harbor – Let’s Do Trivia! – 04/27/23 – Blurb

Welcome to the weekly recap!  Let's Do Trivia at Happy Harbor is the place to be on Thursday night.  There is always food, spirits, and fun to be had.  Let's recap how it all happened. Our cozy gathering had four teams.  Brookes took an early lead with 41 Points.  Breakfast Club's 40 points earned them second place.  The Crazy Crawfords amassed 35 points and were sole owners of third place.  The Leitchers were in fourth place with a respectable 33 points.  The second half progressed much like the first.  Regulation play ended with Brookes maintaining their lead and all teams in contention for the grand prize.     The final category asked about SNL appearances.  For the second week in a row, the Leitchers found the correct answers and submitted a 20-point wager.  Brookes had the correct order but did not wager.  Congratulations to the Leitchers on their victory.  Both teams won Happy Harbor gift cards. Thanks to all teams for your continued support....
