The Hair Blair Bunch Get Their First Win!

Hair Blair Bunch is our quiz winner on July 14th 2022 for the very first time. As one of our newer teams, they have struggled week after week and thought the win would never be theirs. Well, this week they did it! Beating the best teams we have and achieving an impressive victory
Well done to you boys, now let’s see you repeat that miracle……..
Make sure you book your tables a week in advance for the best chance to get your preferred tables, see below for a link to the Cuddie Brae booking site.
Scoreboard
An outstanding performance from the Hair Blair Bunch left the rest straggling behind well grouped together. The Creepy Blinders were lurking in second place waiting to pounce to the top spot but just couldn’t get there. Performing very well again are the Crusaders just waiting for a chance to top the scoreboard, that would be another miracle. Maybe they should change their team name to ‘Pigs Will Fly‘.
Our best-performing team after the handicaps have been removed, the Scrambled Eggheads, came in fourth but there is light at the end of the tunnel since the Creepy Blinders have now taken over the zero points position on next week’s starting scoreboard. Most of the remaining teams remain clustered together.
The clustering of teams, the best teams not getting the win, and the Hair Blair Bunch winning are all proof the handicapping system is working well. For the new teams, our handicapping ensures we don’t have the same teams winning week after week demoralising the rest. Every team will get a good shot at the win at some point. Who would ever have predicted this week’s winners?

Jackpot Games
There was one Jackpot winner this week!
£24 was won on Take It Or Leave It by The Newbies. They settled up early to take the cash. We continued the game to the end to find that had they held off, the £88 would have been theirs. You take your chances and sometimes it pays off, not this week though!
The Take It Or Leave It jackpot will remain at £88 for our next quiz.
The BIG game, Open The Box, had a jackpot prize of £250. It was the turn of the Creepy Blinders to draw a ball and win the jackpot but with every ball back in play, they failed this time.
The jackpot remains at £250 next week,
Music Bingo
Our theme this week was Girl Power featuring music from solo acts and bands with prominent female members.
We paid out £10 for a line and £24 for the full house, both going to the Newbies making their total cash winnings £58, what a night for you guys. Join us again next week for another game of music bingo.
New Teams
It was good to see a couple of new teams last night. The Hostess Trollies doing brilliantly on their first attempt. We could be looking at a force to be reckoned with at future quizzes. The Golf Widows and Norfolk And Chance held their own and will improve.
The Quizzy Rascals had to leave before the end of the quiz so your score can’t be included in the handicapping right now. Remember your handicaps will improve for your next visit so you will start with more points. You never know, it could be one of you at the top next time.
Please don’t be strangers, it was great to meet you all.
