Bavarian Chatswood Trivia Tuesday – WE’RE BACK
Chatswood trivia is coming back!
iQ Trivia is kicking things off again with the North Shore’s most interesting trivia at The Bavarian on Railway Street in Chatswood. It’s every Tuesday evening at 7:00pm.
The Bavarian has got great food, great beer, and great prizes. We’ve got great questions, and a great host, so it’s the perfect way to spend a Tuesday evening with your friends. (Provided, of course, that you are not an insufferable bore who hates trivia, in which case you should probably stay home and contemplate your misguided priorities. Seriously.)
If you’re the kind of person who has memorised every Melbourne Cup winner, congratulations. But to be honest, that probably won’t help you much. This isn’t an exam. It’s aimed at starting conversations. Rather than just spitting out facts, you will probably have have to do some lateral thinking. We will ask questions that you won’t see coming. We are going to ask questions you probably can’t answer off the top of your head, but will probably enjoy arguing about with your friends. As always, the IQ in iQ Trivia stands for interesting questions, and that is what we will provide.
On every quiz we will have a homework question to give an advantage to our regular players. If you want to be on the e-mail list, just send an e-mail to homework@iqtrivia.com.au with Chatswood in the subject line, and we will send you the homework e-mail before every show.
And the Facebook page dedicated to the show will have additional information to help you out on the night.
Book yourselves in now for the best trivia on the North Shore through the Bavarian’s website.
Assemble your teams and we will see you at 7:00pm every Tuesday evening at The Bavarian Chatswood on Railway Street.
Have an interesting week!
