I still remember attending my first Trivia night back in 2013. A group of my coworkers were discussing some options for happy hour venues and when we saw that a spot down the street was hosting a Trivia Night, we decided to go for it. I was instantly hooked. When the opportunity arose to join the Last Call team, I was ecstatic. Working with a talented and creative team to spread my love of trivia across the country-what could be better! I currently manage sales and outreach in our west coast areas. Outside of work, I love to travel and am also an avid equestrian and Disney movie lover.All Posts

Podcast Episode 42 Round 1

Round One

 

Today’s show begins with a Companies Trivia question about a motorcycle manufacturer that introduced a landmark aquatic product over 40 years ago. In more water-based fun, can you guess which U.S. city is home to the top four most-visited water parks in the country?

 

Next, a Money Trivia question asks the Team to identify the unit of currency that is used in several Middle Eastern countries. While it’s not the answer to this question, did you know that alcoholic beverages have been used as a form of currency throughout history?

 

The first round wraps up with a Games Trivia question about a popular board game that allows players to choose between two final destinations. Spoiler alert: Click here to learn more about the fascinating history of this game – including the macabre elements included in its earliest versions.

 

Bonus Question

 

Today’s Bonus Question is a follow-up to the Games question from the first round, although it also ties into the category of the second question. The Team is asked to guess the amount of money that players start with at the beginning of this board game. They have some solid logic behind their answer, but do you think you could help them guess closer to the exact number?
