THE LAST BIG SMOKE BYOB QUIZ SHOW - THE HIGHLIGHTS

Quarantine has put a strain on our social lives and social nature, forcing us to find new, creative ideas to keep in touch with friends and keep us from going bonkers at home!

As humans we strive to interact, stay connected and socialise and in the spirit of this, at the beginning of lockdown we launched a Wednesday BYOB Quiz Show - an opportunity for household, friends, colleagues and families to compete against together, have a laugh and enjoy a drink together. The perfect opportunity for people who were working from home or bored of endlessly scrolling through Instagram feeds full of people doing the headstand to just sit back and enjoy a game night full of exciting trivia rounds!

Last night we drew the curtains on our very last Wednesday BYOB Quiz Show, which has kept us in good company and entertained for the past 18 weeks. During the course of the weeks we came up with 108 rounds of trivia, which challenged the minds of 400 players and 16 different winners who won a branded t-shirt - the perfect addition to the comfy quarantine wardrobe! 

In May during Mental Health Awareness week we partnered with Mind Charity for a quiz night aimed at raising money for a cause very close to our hearts. 120 players joined us on the night, helping us raise £2000 for the charity. Mental heath has been very challenging for many of us, especially in this difficult time and we were ecstatic to see so many people embracing the cause and  help spread a message of understanding and kindness. 

We were happy to have many regulars joining us each week on our BYOB Quiz show and seeing them climbing up our leaderboard. Among them we had the pleasure of having Bruce from the popular Antiques Roadshow who joined us on our last night too! 

But fear not - the BYOB Quiz Show is just taking a small break and will be back with more exciting, curious and challenging trivia rounds around the end of September so keep your eyes peeled!
