Trivia Tournament to Benefit UHPP

The Golden Speculum

I like Trivia.  A lot.  I'm also pretty competitive about it.  I watch Jeopardy every night with my husband, and if he steps out of the room for a moment, I have to pause the show.  I do this because the insane braggart section of my brain needs an audience.  You see, Jeopardy isn't any fun when I'm playing alone, because nobody is there to see my all-knowing trivia masterfulness.  I get that this may seem weird, but hey- I don't have a ton of skills.  Hubby can play musical instruments and do crazy things with tools, so I don't feel too guilty about it.

Last year we held our first Planned Parenthood Young Leaders Trivia Tournament.  We held it at Revolution Hall in Troy-- a wonderful venue-- and the cost of admission included a beer, some amazing food, and the chance to win some prizes donated by local businesses.  The Grand Prize was the Golden Speculum Award.  Remember me mentioning that my hubby does crazy things with tools?  He made the award, and I think he did a pretty great job-- though I confess my bias.

People formed teams with some hilariously creative names including; Georgia O'Queef, May the Vag Be With You, Team Sponge-worthy, Cunninglinguists, We Support Women with Many Positions, Vag of Honor and of course the name for the official UHPP team, Pirates of the Perineum. As much as this pains me to admit, we didn't win last year.  We were spanked by We Support Women With Many Positions, a very clever group of students from RPI.  I really hope they come back this year for a rematch.

This year our MC will be Beau Comeaux.  Beau is the host of the Tuesday night trivia at Bacchus Wood-Fired Pizza in Troy.  He has graciously donated his time to help us out, and he comes highly recommended by people who frequent his regular trivia night.  I can't wait to see what he has in store for us.

The Pirates of the Perineum

Please consider joining us as it's truly a great time.  It's coming up on Thursday, June 13 at 6pm, so save the date.  To pre-register to ensure a spot on the roster, visit the Eventbrite page to buy tickets and read the deets. We can hook you up with a trivia team if you're flying solo, or you can sit on the sidelines and pretend you know all the answers. 

If you have any other questions, you can email the Young Leaders committee at PPYL@uhpp.org.  Hope to see you there!
