Flex your brain muscles at these Tucson trivia nights

That’s where trivia nights come in, those group pub quizzes held at bars and restaurants throughout Tucson that allow you to flex your useless knowledge skills with a cold beer in your hand.

Most trivia nights share the same format. Teams of five or six sit through several rounds of questions, which can be super general or uber-specific depending on the theme of the game.

Points are tallied after each round. The team with the most points at the end of the session collects prizes ranging from free pints to gift certificates for free pints, and, of course, sweet, sweet bragging rights.

Many of Tucson’s trivia nights are run by two pub quiz companies, Geeks Who Drink (geekswhodrink.com) and Team Trivia (teamtrivia.com), but you can also find drinking establishments running their own

games.

Here are some of the regularly scheduled trivia nights held in the area. As always, check ahead to make sure schedules haven’t changed.
