NC Teacher wins $25,000 HQ Jackpot

NC Teacher wins $25,000 HQ Jackpot

Remember that $25,000 grand prize, one winner takes all round of HQ Trivia? A P.E. teacher in Jacksonville, NC was the winner!

25-year-old Mikey Elkins was… sitting on the toilet “doing his business” while playing his nightly round of HQ. Like many of us, he had never won the game before – most of the time not getting past question six!

He quickly got to question 14, then with a mix of knowledge and guessing he became the grand prize winner!

What will he do with the $25,000? Part of it will be used to pay for the honeymoon he and his wife were unable to take after their wedding.

Congrats Mikey!

We found The 1! Congrats to maelkins1 for taking home $25,000 on HQ tonight. pic.twitter.com/Lpuv5Ap5qI
