Greetings Quirk Nation! Have we got news for you! Our first Traitors event sold out spit-spot, so we're rolling out additional nights of the event in three different states! Oh, and we've been hired by Bananagrams to host a Bananagrams extravaganza at Lord Hobo, where they'll be debuting a Bananagrams beer! AND, we're doing Always Sunny in Philadelphia Trivia in honor of the new season! Ooo, and for those of you begging for a 40+ Board Game Speed Dating, your prayers have been answered! We've got that and all the old staples as well, so read on.

Real-Life Traitors Competition

The moment we watched an episode of Traitors, we knew we had to build an event around it.* Our version is set in fun restaurants/breweries, not a gorgeous castle, it features regular people not Reality TV stars, and the prize pool is... slightly smaller. But it will still be a glorious night full of missions, murders, and mayhem.

Several attendees will secretly be given the role of Traitor, who must work to murder as many Faithfuls as they can, all without being detected and voted out. Meanwhile, there will also be challenges, round tables and one or two other hat tips to a great show.

Best of all, no knowledge of the TV show is required. It's a game so simple anyone can play. Here are the dates...

• June 30th | Boston MA | High Street Place | Tickets! (SOLD OUT!)
• Jul 7th | Boston MA | High Street Place | Tickets!
• Jul 29th | Providence RI | Providence Brewing | Tickets!
• Aug 5th | New London CT | Tox Brewing Company | Tickets!
• Aug 12th | Boston MA | Club Cafe | Tickets!
• Aug 19th | New London CT | Tox Brewing Company | Tickets!

Wanna host a private Traitors game for you and a group of friends? Email us at host@quirkevents.com and we'll set something up.

*Having said that, if anyone from legal asks, this game is in no way inspired by the copyrighted hit Peacock TV show.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Trivia! 

Cut the sleeves off your best graphic tee and get the gang together to play It's Always Sunny Trivia: The Game of Games!

Bananagrams Tournament on June 26th

Lord Hobo and Bananagrams have combined forces to make a new beer, and they've hired us to host a giant Bananagrams night at their release party! We'll have a slew of Bananagrams variants you've never even heard of, loads of Bananagrams SWAG to give away, and, to cap it all off, a Bananagrams tournament where players will battle it out for the distinction of Top Banana!

Name the City

As Quirk Events rapidly expands to new locations, we are brushing up on our cities, and we want you to do the same! Can you name the city in these five questions ?

1. What Midwestern city could have used a firefighter like Frederick Crane back in 1871, when its famous fire burned over 17,000 buildings and 73 miles of road?
2. Known as “the biggest party in the world,” the biggest Carnival in the world is held every February in what city?
3. Gucci was founded in 1921 by none other than the spectacularly-named Guccio Gucci, in what Italian city?
4. The 1889 World’s Fair was hosted in what European city, marking the anniversary of the country’s revolution? A 985-foot tall structure that still stands today was built to mark the entrance to the event.
5. With just 104,057 people according to the 2010 US census, what is the smallest city to be home to a team in one of the four major professional sports? (City name must be part of the team name, so while the Patriots play in the small town of Foxboro, they wouldn't count because they are called the New England Patriots)

Check your answers here!

Okay, that's all for now. Thank you for being a part of the Quirk Events Universe. And, as always, game on!
