1. Harry Potter Trivia
Night for Teens
Sign in at the table by the door!

2. How It Works, Part 1
• Work in teams of up to 5 players.
• Each round has 5 questions.
• You have four minutes to work on each
round of questions.
• You do not lose points for wrong answers,
except in the final championship round.
• No cheating!

3. How It Works, Part 2
• For the final round, you will wager some or
all of your team’s points on your answer.
• You will place your bet:
– after we tell you the final category
– before we read the actual question
• If you get the final question wrong, you lose
the points that you bet!

4. How It Works, Part 3
• For example, say your team has 5000 points
going into the last round.
• You like the category, so you bet 4500 points.
• If you are correct, your final point total will
be 5000 + 4500 = 9500 points.
• If you are incorrect, your final point total will
be 5000 - 4500 = 500 points.

5. How It Works, Part 4
• Members of the winning team each get
$15 gift cards to Borders Books and Music.
• Every player is entered into the drawing
to win a Harry Potter tote bag.
• Eat lots of snacks and have fun!
