Hunger Games Trivia
On Tuesday, November 17th, I attended a trivia event held in the Campus Center Event Room based on the Hunger Games movies and books. The event was held by SET, and was one of many trivia events that are held about various topics.
The night began with forming teams of five, who then shuffled into the Event Room and spread out across the room. A SET member handed out six small lined sheets of paper and a pen to each of five groups. Once everyone was settled, the rules were explained. Each team had six sheets of paper because they needed one for each round. Only one member of the group was required to write the answers down and turn in an answer sheet. Each round had a different theme, and some questions were worth more than others. Round one was based on characters, in which a slide was shown with a picture of a character from one of the movies, and the participants had to write down the name of the character. Round two was quotes from the books and movies, and players had to write down who said them. There was no extra time at the end of each round to go over your answers, making it more challenging. All of the rounds took about an hour to get through.
At the end of Round 6, SET members took a few minutes to tally up the results of each team as a song from one of the movies played in the background. The team who won first prize received tickets to the new Hunger Games movie for this Friday. Second place received Stockton University winter hats, and my team, coming in third, received SET water bottles.
Overall, Hunger Games Trivia was a great event for anyone interested in the books and/or movies. The timing of the event was perfect, given that the new movie comes out in theatres this Friday.
