WELCOME, ASSHOLES.
Do you think trivia is fucking lame? Cool, cool same.
The Brian & Alex Show was designed for people who don’t wanna waste a weeknight taking goddamned SAT’s. Come join the dumbest thing on earth and try to identify animals by photos of them boning/Bizarre international pop tart flavors/naming real life assholes with actual photos of assholes all over their faces, and even stupider categories than those. Come spin our massive spinning prize wheel, throw an enourmous foam D20 across the room to gain advantages, and compete for a six foot tall trophy and the greatest prizes ever given out by a trivia show in western civilization.
What prizes you ask? In the last two years we’ve given out four tickets to Lion King with a private backstage tour. Private suites for Mary J Blige, and the same suite for Madonna, 36 seats at Mets games, a booze cruise on the Hudson, tickets for Wu Tang, 50 cent, Pitbull/TPain, Shakira, Lion King, Drunk Shakespeare, Puffs, Nets, Lakers, Yankees, two hotel rooms in Atlantic City, Medieval Times, hats, shirts, grinders, koozies, totes, MULTIPLE hammocks, a total of more than three entire cases of liquor, an ACTUAL bicycle, and $8000+ of bar tabs.
I mean…
COME JOIN THE SHIT SHOW JABRONIS!!
PRE-SHOW:
At 7:45 every Wednesday we will show three “Fun Fact” questions. Each is a random 50/50 toss up question like guessing if a photo on screen is a Friend of ours, or a Canadian. Or guessing if a dog breed name is real or one we made up. These are designed to reward teams that arrive on-time/early. The points count towards your first round score. Be sure to write those answers on the back of your answer sheet for the first round.
MAIN SHOW STRUCTURE:
The Brian & Alex Show is comprised of three main rounds of 13 questions. Almost always each round is “sponsored” by a letter of the alphabet. The letter tells you that all answers in that round BEGIN with that letter.
Excepts: In most standard rounds, an ‘except one’ (or except two) will be in place. Meaning that one (or two, or in rare cases more) do NOT begin with the letter of the round. It’s your teams job to figure out which question/s are there to trick you.
The last question of every round is a RIDDLER question. In most rounds, there will be a tiny image of the RIDDLER hiding in the slide. If you catch the Riddler in the slide, take good notes on everything you see as we’ll be asking a second question at the end of the round about that slide, worth two points.
The top 2-4 teams from RD 1 or 2 will advance to a Lightning Round. No team can be in both Lightning rounds. After revealing the category for the Lightning, the competing teams will send a single member up to the stage to play. The winner of the Lightning will earn a CHIP and spin the WHEEL OF WHAT NOW for additional advantages.
After the 3rd RD all teams (unless the 1st place team chooses to play rather than pass) will play the ALL PLAY LIGHTNING where your entire team will work on a single slide for five minutes. The highest score in the ALL PLAY will roll the Bouncy Die for advantages.
The top 2-4 teams (pending ties/host discretion) will send one member up to compete in the Thunder Round. The Thunder is random questions that begin with one or more of the letters used earlier in the show. This is clean slate. Whoever gets the most correct wins the show.
SUP?
Beyond our flagship show every Wednesday at The Parkside Lounge, we host dozens of private one-off shows every year for any and all of your needs. We apologize in advance.
