Trivia Night

    Utah State University Dining Services and Aggie Radio are teaming up to host Trivia Night in the Hub February 5 at 6 p.m. Planners for the event are Karli Salisbury, operations manager at Luke’s Cafe on the Quad, and Riley Thompson, an Aggie Radio marketing director.
    “I am stoked to finally get a trivia night up on campus,” Salisbury said. “Trivia night is meant to bring night life to the Taggart Student Center and create another social outlet for those students who live on campus.”
    According to Salisbury, this will be the first trivia night campus life has seen in five years. Rules for the game were created by Salisbury and the dining services retail marketing team. Six different question categories will be introduced that evening and five rounds will be played.  During each round, one question will be asked from each category. Judges will walk around to check answers and keep score. Once a round is complete scores will be announced and the next round will begin. Winners are promised prizes, a trophy and bragging rights.
    According to Thompson, Aggie Radio is creating a lot of buzz on this event with commercials and liners to play during their various shows.
    “Many DJ's were excited to audition for the position of MC for the event,” Thompson said.
    Dining services is planning a special menu for this event: buffalo wings; deep-fried veggie basket; spinach artichoke dip and nachos.
    According to Jaime Bradford, the assistant director for retail operations, dining services hopes to utilize trivia night to help create an excellent college experience for students.
    “We are excited to start a new tradition here at USU, and are happy to work with another organization on campus,” Thompson said.
    “My hope is that we can do this more than once and turn this in to a monthly event,” Salisbury said.
