Trivia Nights Around Austin

Last night I experienced my first ever Trivia Night at a local bar here in Austin; Third Base at 6th and MoPac downtown. I had no idea what to expect, but it was a pretty good time. There are about 7 rounds (10 questions each) all on different topics. Some of our topics included:

  • TV Shows
  • Reality TV Shows
  • Books and Authors
  • Music
  • Austin Venues
  • Austin Trivia

The bar has specials on drinks if you are in the Trivia Game seating area so you can dine, drink, and get your trivia gaming on all in one!

While it was a fun time, me and my partner came in last place. :( Not because we don't know anything, but because we don't know everything. All the other teams had between 6 and 12 people per team! Needless to say, we were outnumbered unfortunately. Also, I would recommend not making jokes at the hosts' expense.

IE: The tipsy female hostesses (that were drinking way too much for being on the job!) asked the Bonus Question "What Reality TV show would we be best on?" Most people tried sucking up for the extra points by recommending they would be great on America's Next Top Model, and Paris Hilton's BFF.

My partner and I recommended: Charm School.

Come on, it was a joke! Can't we have a laugh? I mean, we are at a Trivia Night, on Reality TV, at a bar, being offered $1 shots for bonus points. I think it was clear that after that, they weren't on our side.

 

Even though we came in last place and didn't win the gift card, we still had a great time. I would highly recommend checking out a Trivia Night near you!

Great photo! Hope it came with the rights to use it. Thanks for sharing some fun spots in Austin. Perhaps I'll get there someday.
