Nobody Will Name the Dirty Stinking Cheaters Who Tarnished Red Bears Wednesday Trivia Night

Red Bear Brewing Co. faced a cheating scandal during its trivia night when a team was caught using Shazam on an Apple Watch to improve their scores. Co-owner Simon Bee confirmed the team's ban from future events, yet their identities remain a mystery despite significant public interest. The team had previously competed under various aliases, including “Single Moms Who Work Two Jobs Who Love Their Kids and Never Stop. ” Fellow competitor Ryan Smith described the moment of realization when his teammate suspected the first-place team of cheating, highlighting the emotional toll it took on their experience.

The prizes for trivia night are modest, featuring items like a Koozie and a plush bear, emphasizing the low stakes of the competition. Following the scandal, Red Bear's Quizmasters issued a stern warning about cheating to maintain integrity in the games. The incident has motivated Smith's team, who are eager to win fairly in upcoming trivia nights. Trivia nights at Red Bear remain popular, with over 40 teams competing in a recent event, underscoring the community's enthusiasm for the games.
