For those in the Champaign-Urbana area, the local Kiwanis chapter is putting on a “Sports Trivia Championship” on Sunday, January 31 at the Hilton Garden Inn.
The topics for the questions that will be asked seem to be locally driven:
- Illini basketball and football
- Cubs, Cardinals and White Sox
- Chicago Bears
- … and more
I talked to one of the organizers and asked him if “and more” could possibly include Illini Baseball. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it. Maybe next year.
If you’re interested, you can sign up at the Sports Trivia Championship website. Entry fee is $25 and proceeds are going to the Don Moyer’s Boys and Girls Club, Little League Baseball, and Challenger Baseball League for Handicapped Youth.
There is a $1,000 grand prize and besides that, is sounds like a lot of fun.
