What is “The Trivia Life”?
The Trivia Life is growing up watching The Brady Bunch, Mary Tyler Moore, Three’s Company… and somehow, without even realizing it, everything you’re watching is being filed away in the archives of your brain, to be retrieved at a later date.
The Trivia Life is reading The Guinness Book of World Records and Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! from cover to cover at age 6.
The Trivia Life is you and your brother poring over the statistics on the backs of your baseball cards, quizzing each other on the most obscure information you can think of.
The Trivia Life is being 12 years old, hearing about a new board game called Trivial Pursuit, playing it for the first time, and suddenly feeling that the world makes sense.
The Trivia Life is knowing that the TV Guide that Elaine took from the Costanzas’ house was Volume 41, Number 31.
The Trivia Life is picking up a microphone, hosting a Trivia Night, and knowing this is what you were meant to do.
