Poetical Pub Quiz
Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world. But do you know who actually said that? If you do, you might just be in luck.
Join Ross McCleary and Beth Cochrane, aka Slamothy Jones, for a highly competitive and stylishly aggressive poetry pub quiz that will stretch the definitions of Poetic General Knowledge and Pub Quizzery alike.
To err is human; to forgive, divine, but tonight if you err you’ll be shamed before your contemporaries. And for the winner, the greatest reward a Poet can receive: Exposure. So get your rhyming caps on and think like a Poet.
