Questions will span a wide variety of categories: from Elvis to Olivia Rodrigue, from Kahlo to Feynman, from Patton to Zelenskyy, and from the Scoville scale to the Richter scale so multigenerational teams whose players have wide interests may have an edge. If you don’t have a team, come down anyway and we’ll do our best to match you with another partner or two. Trivia battle will start at 6 pm. Teams can be 2-4 players of any age (max on any team is 4). The Grand Prize winning team will win free tickets to the Fall Pig Roast.
It’s no fun playing on an empty stomach so, of course, tacos will be served! We will offer a beef, chicken and vegetarian taco bar with Mexican rice, coleslaw, plus all the toppings, including Laura’s famous homemade guacamole.
