Another Wednesday, another quiz! Last night we were joined by QM Sophia and if I may say so myself, it was an absolute delight. May the memories of last night hold you through the snowstorm that is about to (potentially) ravage Chicago.

No winners on the jackpot, so it's up to $100 next week! See you then, and stay warm and un-iced!

And we're back! Pquizadactyl took home the big prize tonight (including the $350 jackpot!) with Ben Davis and Silver is the New Gold taking 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

I'll be back next week! Come on out and see if you get a chance to win the (newly) $50 jackpot or any of our other delightful prizes.

Hello! It’s been a long time, and while I’ve seen many of you again (since we brought back pub quiz in September), I’ve been bad about posting here. I resolve to do better!

That said, PUB QUIZ IS CANCELED TONIGHT, FEBRUARY 2. See you next week!

Home - Season to Soar: nonprofit organization in Chicago, IL 10/03/2019

And while I've got your attention, next week is a Quiz for a Cause night, in support of Season to Soar!

What's a Quiz for a Cause, you ask? Let me give you the bullet points:

- Quiz happens as usual, free to play.
- You are encouraged to donate to the representatives from StS. If you donate at least $5 per team member, then you're in the running for an additional prize.
- In addition to the usual prizes and Jackpot, the top scoring team that donated at least $5/member will win a slice of the donations.
- That side-pot, if you will, will be $5 per donating team, so the more teams that donate, the bigger the prize!

Bring your friends, and we look forward to seeing you!
