Author: Don Henry Most Wednesdays, a team walks into Shooter’s Sports Grill in Loveland, takes their seats, and like most trivia teams, gets their pencil, answer pad and score sheet and enjoys a night of Last Call trivia. Unlike most teams though, one or more team member always wears the same logoed shirts every …
How does a regular, hardworking host wind up featured as a Last Call HOTM? Hosts must be nominated by their regional manager, undergo a proprietary winnowing process, endure the physical challenge, and then, of course, TRIAL BY COMBAT! This month’s champion is Terrie McGoron. She hosts in Cincinnati. Here’s what her manager had to …
THE SEARCH IS OVER!!! Last Call Trivia is proud to announce the host of the First Annual Ludimentis: CAITLIN MALONE
There’s a magic moment when a new trivia host breaks through the nervousness and connects with a team. Sometimes it’s because they are so sweet… and sometimes it’s because they won’t stop screaming requests for Disney Songs in between questions. I’ll let you guess which of the two led me to The Friends United in …
(One in an occasional series about boosting Trivia scores. . . ) Let’s take a few minutes to go back to something that you may have covered in middle school. If you haven’t read Daniel Keys’ classic short story Flowers For Algernon please stop what you are doing, look it up, and read …

She hosts four nights a week, runs her own business (she is an amazing wedding photographer), and showcases her personal photography on her blog. (You should check it all out. The series from Cincinnati’s Union Terminal is a great place to start.)
Despite all this, Laura somehow found the time to chat for a few minutes and answer my inane questions.
The venerable members of the inaugural Team of the Month hail primarily from the western ‘burbs of Cleveland, where they emerged victorious in our Northeast Ohio Winter 2014 Trivia Finals. Moose Knuckle Sandwich (fka I Wish This Mic Was a D*ck) has been regulars at Avenue Tap House since January 2013, when, “Walton invited us …
“SPORTS!!!” We’ve all heard it. In the last year and a half, it’s slowly been replacing the time-honored trivia battle cry of “SCIENCE” as the thing most likely to be heard at a Last Call Trivia night in Cincinnati. And one man stands behind this transition. A player. A host. A Last Call …
As you saw earlier with Moose Knuckle Sandwich, we will be highlighting one Team of the Month each time around, and for February, I am delighted to introduce Sugarheel out of Cincinnati! In addition to their notable loyalty to Last Call and dedication to our products, we also selected Sugarheel because they fit two fairly …
