And o f the many match-ups around town, ShanRock’s Triviology stands out. No, really. How can you not stand out with Wednesday, June 22’s in spired evening, Queers vs. Breeders: The Return at Foggy Notion? Bi-curious folks are encouraged to “play for the other team”— or swing any which way but/and/or loose— for this themed competition, during which topics may range from figure skaters to “how many times Don Draper tainted the sanctity o f his straight marriage” in the first season of M ad Men. Teams are limited to five members, with prizes, a trophy and (of course) bragging rights to the victors. Hosts Michele (representing the Queers) and ShanRock herself, Shannon Donaldson (representing the Breeders), serve as trivia jockeys for the night, when the Queers will defend their championship from two years ago. And with future installments devoted to Harry Potter (July 11 at Ella Street Social Club) and Grease (July 17 at East Burn), win or lose, the queer quizzery won’t be quitting anytime soon.
