What it is: A pub trivia night that has been modeled after the ones they have in Ireland and the U.K. Basically, you get into a team and answer questions about everything from celebrities to bad television.
When it happens: Just about every night.
Where it happens: All over the country, but you can find the Texas schedule here.
Why you should go: It’s a great way to meet people and yell about incredibly stupid stuff. If you win you get to lord your supremacy over the losers around you. If you lose, you get to drown your sorrows in more beer.
