There was a bar next to a strip club and a church that once had NTN in St Louis Gateway area.

Before that in Dayton, OH...the infamous Dayton Swim Club.

Wonder now at school if the teachers will re-quiz the questions during school....also where in the campus they will have it hooked up.

Well, the one thing on my mind is that this is a public high school. People living in that school district are paying for BT with their taxes. I'm sure these people would like to know why they are paying for a trivia game usually found in bars and not in high schools.

I'm jes guessing that there's a teacher or board member here that plays the bar game. Who knows? Caddy Jacks and Elsa's Cantina aren't far away. Maybe someone that shares our addiction lobbied to get it available at the school.

I doubt they will ever have a competitive Showdown team but lookout for Lunchtime Trivia games!

My guess was that this high school was active in some sort of quiz bowl competition and decided to invest in an account to use for practice and recruiting. I played a televised quiz bowl game in high school in New Hampshire in 1984.

Sure enough I took a look and found that Shawnee High School was an Ohio quiz bowl state champion in recent years.

Well, they will be prepared for Napoleon/ French questions, aviators etc.

Would be funny if they lost a game when they offered a BT Bad Answer.
