Denise_Barlock · August 24, 2020, 9:14pm

The 9th State challenge trivia quiz meetup was held on August 22nd. This meetup featured the Tarheel State - NORTH CAROLINA.

@Erna_LaBeau is now crowned QUEEN of NORTH CAROLINA!! The 2nd @KashifMisidia and 3rd @Sagir place winners are appointed to the court of NORTH CAROLINA.

Our, Guest Host, @JordanSB loves his home state and shared lots of additional information about North Carolina during the meetup. He offered special insights and humor in addition to the information covered by the trivia questions.

Unique happenings from this week’s trivia quiz?

There was quite a struggle of which name to use for the single town Winston-Salem which is actually a combination of two individual cities Winston and Salem.
I want to thank @Nitishgautam @Utmanzval @Aftab-A @Tejal @azharmasood786 @Nomad_vikram @RiyaM and Muhammad Thalib for being first-time #StateChallenge attendees!
We are LOVING our repeat attendees!! Thank you @KashifMisidia @Erna_LaBeau @Sagir @JordanSB for your continued participation!
@Denise_Barlock (along with @Kwiksatik and @JordanSB )hosted the meetup this week from Washington, DC from the inside of her RV. Here’s an ongoing Google Map’s list of where I’m hosting the meetups as I travel the United States - https://goo.gl/maps/S6vYmvopAtfo213p6as

Congratulations to the queen on NC, @Erna_LaBeau ! She was so fast with her answers and, as always, providing some comic relief!

@KashifMisidia and @Sagir definitely gave her a run for her money and made it interesting late in the game.

We missed you on this one @SP31 !
