My wife and I do trivia with some of her coworkers at a local brewery on Wednesday nights. Tonight we won this:
That’s $420 in gift cards split between where we were tonight and the bar where the DJ does trivia on Tuesday nights. That’s on top of another $20 gift card for being first overall tonight and a free pitcher for winning a round.
Each week the owners of the two bars have added a $5 gift card to a pool. Each week a team that had played all 5 rounds and won one round was randomly drawn to choose from 50 envelopes; one winner and forty-nine losers. Well, after 42 weeks there was finally a winner US!
We plan to spread the bounty out among the other regulars, but given that we generally at least win a free pitcher every week for winning a round and often get either $10 for second or $20 for first overall I expect to drink for free for awhile.

This sounds like an excellent scheme. Enjoy it!

I’ll buy you a beer if you can use it all up in one night.

The college bar I do trivia at is tended by a fraternity brother I’m buddies with. The person who does trivia is friends with my roommates, who I go with. Another roommate does trivia a different night there. We win every time we go, and my brother makes a concoction of liquor and juice for the winners. It’s as gross as it sounds, but good enough for college kids.

Hopefully you’ve done a shoey at least once.
I’ll stick to free beer gift cards over some strange concoction though.

$420 seems like a lot but I could probably use it up quickly, especially if the bar has decent scotch whisky.
Great win, have fun with it!

$210 is for a full bar and grill
$210 is a place that just has beer
I’ll do my own art to make it go away with.
