Pub Trivia



I really like seeing places I know in movies, but then again, maybe I'm a narcissist. Still, Answer This makes pub trivia in Ann Arbor seem much more exciting than Monday Nights at Conor O'Neill's ever were. What local places can you identify in the trailer? There are the obvious bars: 8-Ball, Grizzly Peak, Rick's (really?) and the former Full Moon, future Ravens Club. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the rope swing scene looks like it was shot along Barton Pond, about 1 km upriver from the dam.

  1. I rather love pub trivia, although I've only won once... haven't managed to get into it in A2 very much though. BCB, do you have any recommendations on the "best" one in town?

  2. Ashley's, Professor Ralph Williams, a view of West Hall from East Hall, Espresso Royale on S. University, Grizzly Peak, 8 Ball, Rick's, The Full Moon, Hutchins Hall, Stucchi's, the Diag, the Dana building, the Cube, Zingerman's, definitely the rope over Barton Pond at the fire pit, and the State and Michigan theaters.

    In other news, I'm procrastinating like a champ this morning! Ohgodit'snoon

  3. GH, I've only done trivia at Conor O'Neill's. It was OK, but I stopped going after the music category one night was just questions about "Walk like an Egyptian." I think The Arena has trivia, but I'm not sure when.

  5. I imagine you have been in so many movies now Adam, that it's hard to keep track. Maybe you could check your IMDB page to see if you were in Answer This.

  6. I love the implication that the 8 ball would ever host trivia or any event that didn't involve a staff member's band.
