It\u2019s smiles all around at trivia night in September at HighSide Brewery in Frisco. The trivia night is now virtual due to the coronavirus pandemic.<\/strong>

Don\u2019t know what to do this weekend? Well, you\u2019ve come to the right place. Pull up a seat to the counter, and I\u2019ll tell you about everything that\u2019s hot and happening.<\/em><\/p>\n

With establishments closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, beer, wine and cocktails are readily available in to-go formats. But take it from me, drinking at home alone is a poor substitute for gathering with friends for events like pub trivia. Thankfully, bars and breweries know this and have created virtual entertainment options for some semblance of normalcy. <\/p>\n

Aside from missing the first week because of the shutdown, HighSide Brewing in Frisco is going strong with its weekly trivia game. Hosts Ward Malek and Brett Lomoro saw musicians livestreaming concerts and figured they could do something similar with trivia.<\/p>\n

They set up their own Facebook page separate from the brewery, called HighSide Trivia<\/a>, and kept the same format as before: three rounds of six questions with a final bonus round of wagering points.<\/p>\n
