SPORTS TRIVIA NIGHT
Spring Training Study Guide #1
'Chicago's Own'
Nobody expects to march into the gym for the first ever Sports Trivia Night contest on Friday, June 16 and be in mid-season form. While people may do an amazing job of answering questions on Jeopardy when they're watching from their couch, it's another matter when the clock is ticking and the pressure is on.
To help shake the cobwebs and get the creative juices flowing, we'll be lobbing some softball questions to your team over the next few weeks so you can start practicing for what promises to be an exciting night.
