How it works

Three steps to trouble

Pick up your answer sheets, put down your phones, and put your heads together. Here's how a night of Troublesome Trivia goes.

Here's the game plan

  1. Step 1: Show up

    Bring your crew or come solo. Find a trivia night from the schedule and head over. Arriving early never hurt anyone, probably.

  2. Step 2: Grab a sheet

    Your answers go on a paper answer sheet. Pick a team name: maybe an inside joke or a pop culture reference, maybe just your name. (We've never had a team named "Manny" win, but it doesn't mean we never will!) Once the game starts, phones go away: no phones, no cheating.

  3. Step 3: Get troublesome

    Six rounds, eight questions each. Hand in your answer sheet to the host. Answers and scores updated every two rounds. Prizes announced at the end!

Good to know

  • Six rounds of eight

    A standard game runs six rounds, eight questions apiece.

  • Scoring

    Most questions worth 1 point. The final round of every trivia is a double points round. Pay attention to the host, they'll keep you informed.

  • Teams and solo players

    Bring your whole crew or play on your own. Both are welcome.

  • Phones away

    Once the game starts, phones get put away. No phones, no cheating.

Got all that?

Pick a night on the schedule and bring your best guesses.
