Digging Detroit and Detroit History Tours had a wonderful time last nigh at the sold-out Detroit Trivia Soiree II at the historic Two Way Inn. It was a fierce competition with 9 rounds, great prizes, limerick, doodles and all kinds of free beer contests that involved being the first to get to the front and show a DPL card, selfie at a Detroit sporting event, etc. Special thanks to authors Greg Sumner (Detroit in World War II ) and Karen Dybis (Better Made in Michigan) for providing signed copies of their books along with special tours from the Detroit Parade Company and the Detroit Public Library.
A big thank you to the following great folks who supplied video trivia questions and some special prizes! You can see their video questions throughout these photos…
