Once again, it is time to celebrate the crucifixion of the sweet baby Jesus by eating Peeps and chocolate rabbits – happy easter, everybody! I just found out that East Burn will be closed for Easter Sunday, but trivia is still on at Ladd’s Inn at 9 PM. I hope to see you there, competing for prizes for the TWO highest scoring teams!

Great news, folks – it looks like Triviology is going downtown! I’ve chosen the brand new Ella Street Social Club to join my mighty legion of quizzery venues. Your trivia jockey at this venue will beKyle (who will also substitute TJ at The Kenton Club for the next couple of weeks while Brent‘s on vacation). We want to make the trivia when you want to play it, so let me hear your feedback . . . the weekly quiz will be on Mondays, but we haven’t decided on a showtime. We are aiming for the early side – a happy hour quiz, perhaps. What time would you like to play downtown?

 

And as for this weekend, the plans for the Queers vs. Breeders Trivia Showdown are coming together nicely! Saturday, April 18th, 6:00 at The Spare Room, my co-host Michelle (of That’s So Gay Trivia) and I will alternate rounds, bringing you fun, fabulous trivia. You don’t really need to know more than that, except that it’s free, and will run a couple of hours, but I’ll give you more details in next week’s newsletter. 

 

And finally, check out my new picture page on my website to see photos from my recent 80s trivia night. I’ve got much more to add, so check back later, too.
