GeoClub trivia night, Fall 2018

Our trivia night was a smash! Billy and Nik dredged the depths of Wikipedia to create two hours of mind-crunching questions. Two teams came out on top: the paleontologists must have really boned up on their random facts, and Amadeus (named for our President's new pup!) squeaked into second with some killer geography chops. Featuring La Croix and tiny trophies.
