TRIVIA TOO GOOD NOT TO BE SEEN
Trivia Mafia is celebrating Pride Month with a trivia night dedicated to LGBTQ television all throughout June! We’re witnessing a golden age of diverse queer representation today, but it didn’t happen overnight. So in addition to highlighting today’s creators and characters, we’ll pay tribute to the trailblazers that paved the way.
So break out your Pride flag, pop up some popcorn, and get ready to binge-answer this slate of questions! Whether you fell in love with Willow and Tara in the ‘90s, were glued to the screen whenever someone shouted “Omar comin’!” in the 2000s, or spent the last decade saving the day with the Crystal Gems, we’ll have something for you to celebrate!
WE’RE HERE! WE’RE QUEER! WE’D LIKE TO KNOW THE SPECIFICS!

Trivia starts promptly on time, so make sure to get to your location a bit early and discuss which of your favorite show’s characters absolutely should’ve been written as queer were it not for cowardly showrunners.

Teams are limited to six — perfect for anyone who’s needed the assistance of a Fab Five!

All of our locations use the Trivia Mafia App for running theme nights, so bring a fully-charged phone or risk having to sashay away mid-game.

The same questions will run at all locations, so don’t be disappointed when you try to double dip and discover that we’re “Pose”-ing the same questions.

Use your noodle, not your Google. All cheaters will be asked to take Oscar’s seat next to Angela for the rest of the night.
