It’s been a while since I’ve attended a trivia night. The last time I turned up was in September last year and I had just shaved my head for the first time. It was a gooood Grand Final weekend.
But things have changed since last time. My good friend Daniel has taken over from Michael “Chuck” Norris as Trivia Master and besides a couple of minor hiccups, he did a damn good job! Finding out that Danny was $150 the wiser for his services got us all thinking though. $50 an hour plus beers and a meal is a recipe for a terrific story.
My friend Caius introduced me to the idea that Danny would play the part of the perfect Corrupt Trivia Master. Friendly enough to be in with the pub owners, but responsible enough to give his mates the answers. And the reward, a $40 bar tab. Between 15 people.
As silly as an idea it is, there seems to be a bit of stuff that I can work with. Regarding plot points and character development, the story basically writes itself. I suppose now the next step would be to take the idea and twist it so that the narrative isn’t too predictable. If anything eventuates, I will keep you posted…
