Fun & Free Portland Trivia Nights + Win Prizes! | ShanRock’s Triviology

Our sponsors @ Shanrocks:

I am Trivia Jock ShanRock, and my team and I create and host fun and unique pub quizzes in beautiful Portland, Oregon. It’s free to play, and the team victorious walks away with cash or prizes . . . and perhaps more importantly, glory! Have you tried the rest? Now try the best!

Willamette Week’s Best of Portland 2007, and the Portland Mercury’s Best Trivia Night that is! Also, I am thrilled to have been selected Best Entertainer In North Portland, Town’s Terrific-est TJ, and most recently, my La Merde Triviology was awarded the Portland Monthly title of Best Bar To Play!

About the Pub Quizzery

Triviology pub quizzes are free to play, last a couple of hours, and are composed of seven short rounds, giving teams instant gratification for their efforts. Team size can range from one – five players, with prizes for everyone on the winning team. Questions are thoroughly researched and cover a wide variety of topics. Here’s my standard format (play the sample quiz here!)

    *I am so excited to finally have a Triviology venue on Alberta! This brand new bar is already receiving glowing praises in the press – Portland Mercury featured them in a recent issue.

    Speakeasy @ 609 SE Taylor Ave.
    *Sneak on down to The Speakeasy for quizzery with Paul! He rocks the Triviology, and awards $30 in bar cash to the victorious team. Kids, that buys you a lot of booze & grub at this rad little bar! Come for the trivia, stay for the shuffleboard!

    East Burn
    @ 1800 E. Burnside
    After years of ShanRock’s thematic “lunar quizzes,” the people have insisted that once a month ain’t enough! Therefore, she has bowed to the will of the people: every Sunday at East Burn will now be a night of Weekly Geekery, in which you will be called upon to answer questions about beloved movies, books, TV shows that you have been looking for an excuse to revisit for the hundredth time. Every night will have a ‘theme’ so be sure to study!
