hey guys, thanks for stopping by. eventually i’ll move this post to its own page, but for the sake of anyone stopping by from the news item ad, i thought i’d put the trivia info here so it’s impossible to miss!!
TONIGHT - and every Monday, we gather at the tavern. There are a couple of things going on . . .
TEAM TRIVIA - if you’ve ever gathered around a Megatouch machine and ran through the trivia game, getting all of your friends to help answer the questions - that’s what we do. kindof.
instead of gathering around a machine, everyone that wants to play together pretty much gets a table, or stakes out a section of the bar. and no, you don’t need a “pre-made” team. it’s common for folks to show up, and find some partners that night.
Elvis takes the mike at 8 pm. - (don’t ask, we just call him Elvis), and the questions start.
There are 4 rounds of 10 questions each. And the topics include a ton of things: Sports, music, movies, books, television, science, history, geography, marketing slogans, local facts, and on and on.
Want some examples?
> what are the states with names that begin and end with the same letter?
> what product is known as the “copper top” battery?
> who was the MVP of the first Super Bowl?
> name the 7 Dwarves (you know, like Snow White and the 7 Dwarves).
> who are the four characters that travelled the yellow brick road (in the Wizard of Oz)?
> name the four words in the english language that end in ‘dous’
> who performed at halftime of the Cardinals/Steelers superbowl last week?
> ever hear of Oprah Winfrey? she has a magazine. what is it called?
> Clint Eastwood’s new film is Gran Torino. What car company made the Gran Torino?
they’re not all easy, but they aren’t all hard either. the great thing is that you don’t have to answer them by yourself. after all, it’s TEAM Trivia.
every answer your team gets correct results in a point being added to your score. the team at the end of the night with the most points wins the prize pool.
in between the rounds of questions, there are several Prize Questions where individual players can come up to the “barstool of knowledge”, answer a question, and win one of the night’s prize packages. so, everyone gets a chance to win something.
if you’ve never been here before, but think it might be fun - Come Out! even if you don’t jump right in and join a team, which you really should, you can see how it works and enjoy . . .
DOLLAR LAGER NIGHT - bottles of Lager are a buck Monday Nights. and last, but certainly not least . . .
WING NIGHT - that’s right, Monday night is Wing Night. there are around a dozen different flavors to choose from, including the house favorite, Sweet and Zippy. you can have them here, or to go. we start making wings at 7, so feel free to show up early and have some wings and settle into the evening!
