Saturday, February 28th, 2026 2:30 PM: Rock Pub Trivia: The Great Earth Duel - Bone Seekers vs. Stone Keepers

⚒️ Can You Dig It? The Great Earth Duel is Here! 💎

Think you know your Bones from your Stones? It’s time to prove your grit. Join us for an hour of high-stakes, low-strata competition as two local legends go head-to-head in the ultimate geological grudge match: The Great Earth Duel: Bone Seekers vs. Stone Keepers

The Showdown:

  • Team Bone Seekers: Led by the infamous amateur paleontologist Greg. They’re looking for anything that’s been dead for 100 million years and has a story to tell. 🦴

  • Team Stone Keepers: Led by the legendary OAMS President Jim. They only care if it’s shiny, crystallized, and makes Greg’s fossils look “old.” 💎

Why you should be there:

  • Pick a Side: Join Greg’s “Team Trilobite” or Jim’s “Team Terminator.”

  • Win Prizes: Help your team rack up points to win some “gneiss” memorabilia.

  • Get Schooled: See Greg and Jim’s favorite “toys” up close while they trade friendly insults and ancient facts.

Whether you’re a total “rock-ie” or a seasoned pro, we promise you won’t take this one for granite.
