Did you know it's possible to exchange useless pop culture trivia for free prizes?
Eugene offers several fun trivia nights where you can do just that.
David Stark, manager of the Eugene City Brewery said Friday trivia night is the Brewery's busiest night of the week.
The Eugene City Brewery is located at 844 Olive St. and its trivia show starts at 8 p.m.
The Brewery has utilized the talents of trivia guru Mr. Bones and his traveling trivia show for three years.
"It's pretty intense," Stark said. "It's free to play and there are great prizes."
Stark said the level of difficulty varies and the questions are all over the board.
"There are some I know and some there is no way in hell I could answer," he said.
The use of iPhones during the game has become a growing problem, Stark said, but it's hard to combat.
