3. At the end of the round, the host will receive all the participating teams’ answer sheets and grade their entries.  The team member’s should use this time to socialize and order more food & drink before the next round begins.

4. In round one, a bonus question will be available to complete each week.  This question will not be asked during the trivia event and will require the team to look up the question on the Pine Street Pub Website.  This exercise must occur before the start of the trivia event and the website should not be viewed, by the team, during the round’s questioning (see rule 1).

5. In round two, you will be provided the category for the final question and your team will be asked to make a wager based on their confidence to answer that question correctly.
