For the very first time, North Branch Works organized a Pub Trivia Night at The Hideout on April 24th. The event brought together a mix of teams and individuals, with over 40 participants competing in three exciting rounds of questions to be crowned the winner.

In the first round, the spotlight was on businesses within North Branch Works’ service area. Participants tackled questions related to local establishments such as Delmark Records, KOVAL Distillery, and Horween Leather Co.

Expanding beyond the immediate service area, the second round focused on the entire City of Chicago. Participants tested their knowledge of Chicago’s rich history, culture, and landmarks.

The last round featured questions that were not directly tied to Chicago but still had some connection to the city. It added an interesting twist to the game.

Drinks from The Hideout and delicious pizza and wings from Trogo Kitchen & Market helped fuel the audience through what was considered a challenging and fun evening.

After intense competition, the team “Let’s Get Quizzical” representing  MxD emerged victorious. Bill Hurley proudly accepted the prize—a genuine NFL football from Horween Leather and tickets to the upcoming North Branch Works Boat Tour.

NBW expresses gratitude to everyone who made this inaugural event possible. We look forward to welcoming even more competitors in future trivia nights.
