Show Off Your Useless Knowledge: Fado Brainstormer Trivia Night

Photo by Dudley M. Brooks/The Washington Post SOMETIMES, LIVING in Washington, you just want to show off how smart you are. It worked so well in undergrad at Brown, and maybe even getting your masters at University of Michigan, and now you never get the chance to show off your knowledge except to the other people in your office, and you get the feeling that they might be tired of your anecdotes about Woodrow Wilson because they keep locking you in the closet and forgetting about you until Monday morning.

Fado, the Irish pub in Chinatown, holds trivia nights every Monday — drink the $4 Harp and Bass and chow down while showing off your quiz bowl chops.

D.C. is filled with trivia nights, but Fado's is the only one I know of where you can eat curry fries. It's also one of the harder trivia nights, so winning here will really mean something when you tell the office Tuesday morning.
