The evening included a warm-up game of Fibbage, followed by some welcoming words from Danyson Tavares (who will be hosting a Conversations in Architecture session in two weeks on 7/25), before SMRT Trivia facilitated the main event.The winning team, “Fun Pod” (pictured above), took home SMRT Trivia t-shirts and the trophy specially made for this event. It mirrors a previous year’s 3D-printed Hobson award, but this time in a rainbow of colors (to learn more about the creation of this trophy, check out the production video on Sasaki Foundation’s Instagram @sasakifdn).Second place was secured by the team “Funner Pod”, and “Small Firms Big Hearts” came in third. In total, there were 12 teams playing, but only the top 3 won prizes other than the pizza and drinks available. The evening concluded with a game of Quiplash, which I myself won!Thank you to the team at Sasaki Foundation that helped make this event so engaging, and a HUGE thank you to SMRT Trivia for putting together the actual trivia! This event was organized and co-hosted by the BSA Foundation and the Sasaki Foundation, and powered by SMRT Trivia.Sad you missed it?
