If you want to eat at Bob’s Pizza on a Tuesday night, good luck getting a table.
Some trivia night teams are there for low-stakes fun. For others, every point matters.
That’s the case for Hilbert’s Hotel, a team of Northwestern juniors.
Member Arjun Farsaiya said they just won for the second time ever…after playing over twenty games.
ARJUN FARASAIYA: We’re in the middle of the playoffs again for the winter, so we’re hoping to make it to the big one in Aurora at the end of the quarter. Which will be fun. Chance to win big money.
800 dollars and bragging rights are on the line for the brainiest team at the trivia finals.
