Quarantine Trivia with The Smoky Mountain News

06/10/2020

Hi all!

Wanted to let you know that SMNQT will be taking a hiatus over the next several weeks. We’ve had a blast with everyone over the past eight weeks, and can’t thank you and our sponsors enough for making it happen.

In the interim, please remember to support local businesses, and, if you feel safe enough, engage in some real bar trivia at a real bar! We've heard there are a couple starting back up.

Thanks again for spending so many Wednesday evenings with us!

If you missed us last week, here's a trivia sampler for your Monday. Try these questions on for size, one from each of the five rounds we played on Wednesday. Join us in two days for the next installment at 7 p.m.!
