Trivia on Pause at the Mad Chef!

Due to ongoing renovations to the back half of the Mad Chef, there will be no trivia on Monday, October 11th. The original front half will be open for beer and food, just no trivia.

There is also the distinct possibility that the renovations won't be done the following week (October 18th). I'll keep you posted here.

Thanks and see you soonly,

Mike

The Return of Bube's Trivia!

Here's what you might find as some good news: I'm returning to host live trivia in Bube's outdoor seating area this Tuesday, June 16th (Weather permitting)!

What's new:

  • The time: gameplay starts at 7:30 P.M.

  • Reservations are available! You can call (717-653-2056) any time during business hours to reserve a trivia table. Please note that trivia seatings are only available for 7 P.M. or later. This theoretically allows for the regular early dinner tables to be turned.

  • Please bring your own pen (disposable golf pencils will be available if you forget)

  • The Trashbag O'Deelite will be replaced by something less germy

What's old:

  • Me

If you feel comfortable with this and your brain is craving a workout, I'd love to see you Tuesday!
