In the noble arenas of Louisville and Southern Indiana bars, aspiring know-it-alls gather under flickering neon lights to duel over obscure Simpsons quotes, Cold War missile acronyms, and the third-best-selling Bon Jovi album—often between gulps of IPA. So grab your friends, take some of that liquid confidence, and test your knowledge at one of these local trivia nights. And good luck! Because losing means you have to listen to Todd from accounting explain again how he almost got on “Jeopardy.”
