Logging in to the game will be similar to our normal trivia and as shown in the above video. Only difference is the game will be 6 rounds, 10 questions per round and you will not have to log in again between rounds/games. The program we use will automatically take you from round to round.

Each round’s questions will have a different theme. Each round will have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize pack and then we will give out a TON of prizes at random between every round. Overall theme of the night and individual round themes for the question sets are a mystery until we go live (ooooohhhh spooky!) but we promise it will be tons of fun so join us for as much of the extravaganza as you can.

If you want to get a feel for how our special Holiday Trivia is different than our normal weekly Thursday Night Trivia, please check out the almost 4th of July Special re-run to get a better idea.

So what does your regular Thursday Night Trivia look like and how is it different?

Glad you asked. Head over to whyrichmondisawesome.com/thursday-night-trivia for more details on what normal Thursday night looks like and join Trivia Club while you are at it. We have two virtual games every Thursday at 7:30pm & 8:30pm and we hope you join us every week moving forward! 😁

The Richmond Experience

The Richmond Experience was founded by Samantha and Sean Kanipe in 2017. When they moved to Richmond several years ago, they struggled to find things to do and places to go, and relied a lot on Yelp and Google, which were often overwhelming and didn’t give them the kind of local insight they craved. They wanted a resource that gave them insider info and that was more curated towards the kind of activities and places they wanted to experience. From this, The Richmond Experience was born – first as an Instagram account, and now to a full-fledged membership program. For their members, their goal is to be that amazing friend who always knows what’s going on, where to go and when to get the best deals.

Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches

Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches was founded by husband and wife team, Xavier Meers and Hannah Pollack. A native of Belgium and 25-year veteran chef, Xavier came to the States to open and run restaurants and soon met Hannah, a former marine and chef herself. During a five-year restaurant run together, they created the first Nightingale ice cream sandwich as a restaurant dessert option. Soon after, they left the restaurant kitchen behind to fully embark on their new venture—one born from a love of their culinary crafts, classic desserts, and each other.

Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches are gourmet and handcrafted, so they cannot be compared to any other ice cream novelty. Each sandwich uses 14 percent butterfat ice cream, locally sourced inclusions, and hand mixed and made cookies. At first bite, you can taste the difference. Each bite brings memories of childhood, but with a sophistication in flavor that won’t be forgotten.
