The 12th works for me! As the Keeper Of The Beer Tokens, I should probably attend.
Looking forward to it! :)

As a nerd, I must insist that you balance your parentheses in the event description.

((And trivia to win (again)) ++ + --You've got three open and two close parentheses, that's all. It's silly to make a fuss about it. I feel silly.

I'll admit it, the idea of spending my birthday evening with Sexy Dean Strang is highly tempting.

WHOA WHOA WOOOOOOOAAA
HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THAT ACCOUNT
I'll see your Sexy Dean Strang and raise you Normcore Dean Strang. I think that may (?) cover most of our Dean Strang needs until June rolls around.
(meanwhile Sexy Jerry Buting only has about 1/3 as many followers as Dean. Sorry, Jerry.)

Last time we did trivia at this venue, all the of sit-down tables were full well before the scheduled start time -- and that was on one of the few very cold days we had this winter. So people might want to try arriving a little early, or else plan to stand for the whole thing.
(Personally I don't have a problem with standing.)

I am planning on getting there early to try to get a table. I have no idea what would be a good time. Maybe 5:30? If anyone else wants to arrive early to keep me company and help me guard our table, feel free! I'll give you my beer token!

I can be there at 5:30 as well! Getting pre-beered up before trivia is a winning strategy, right?

I've re-acquired my vintage 1989 copy of Trump the Game. Should I bring it for post-trivia laughs or do we not want to be seen with it in public?

Hey - I won't be there. Sorry I haven't been attending things lately -- I've been slowly recovering from an injury and haven't been up for much.
