Holidays can be started by anyone and it is believed that Trivia Day got its start in 1980 by a fan of Trivia Robert L. Birch. Mr. Birch was the head of Puns Corp. It is unknown what this company does, produce puns perhaps?\n\n\n\nThe History of Trivia Games:\n\n\n\n\nTrivia games have a rich history dating back to the late 19th century, gaining popularity in social circles as a form of entertainment.\n\n\n\nThe term “trivia” itself is derived from the Latin word “trivium,” meaning the three foundational arts of grammar, rhetoric, and logic.\n\n\n\nThe modern trivia night concept began in the 1970s and quickly became a popular social activity in bars and pubs.\n\n\n\n\nFun Trivia Facts:\n\n\n\n\nThe longest-running TV trivia show is “Jeopardy!” which first aired in 1964.\n\n\n\nThe world’s largest trivia contest, “The Great Midwest Trivia Contest,” takes place annually at Lawrence University in Wisconsin.\n\n\n\nThe Guinness World Record for the longest trivia quiz marathon is an impressive 33 hours and 23 minutes.\n\n\n\n\nYou can celebrate Trivia Day by:\n\n\n\nWays Kids Can Celebrate Trivia Day:\n\n\n\n\nFamily Trivia Night: Host a trivia night at home with family members, featuring questions suitable for all ages.
