Nebraska #StateChallenge Study Guide Meet-up and Trivia Quiz

[Denise_Barlock]

What do you know about the state of Nebraska? Isn’t it in the middle of the United States? What else do you know?

…and the GUEST HOST for the state of Nebraska?? @LeyleyS !!!

In an effort to make sure that all attendees have a chance to become the KING/QUEEN of the featured state, we have decided to give all former Trivia Kings and Queens a deficit of “-200” points for each time they have previously won 1st place.

1. This should give those who haven’t won before a better chance
2. Provide some additional challenge to those who have won before

Here are our previous winners and their current deficits.
