Lou Dawgs

April 02, 2012

76 Gerrard St E CLOSED
Close to Ryerson University, Lou Dawgs was the beer league of Trivia Club events! Held weekly on Tuesdays, with no audio or video clues but with your host roaming around on a wireless mic. It was held weekly on Tuesdays for 130 events. The show was lo-fi but full of energy from a hard partying set that included initial rivals The Bastards and the Beer Barons, saw the debut of the M. Night Shaym-Aliens, and the introduction to Trivia Club for Lt. Dance as well. The Cunning Stunts would not only eclipse the Beer Barons as the rivals of The Bastards, but would be responsible for the first THREEPEAT for a Golden VHS Championship team, doing so at Lou Dawgs. Other notable teams from Lou Dawgs were the people's underdogs Treasure Butt, the always #RideOrDie Queen's Beaver, alongside a whole host of original and memorable names for teams!

The Top Dawg Tournament took place every March, in honor of our initial night of March 11th, 2014 at Lou Dawg's near Ryerson, making it very much Trivia Club's March Madness! To the winner of the Tournament went the Top Dawg Trophy, which was a different trophy each year that is lovingly crafted to honor the Top Dawg at our Lou Dawg's location! The first year saw the team with the highest aggregate score win the Top Dawg Trophy, but in 2015/2016 was a new format that saw the best two-outta-three scores in March take home the Top Dawg Trophy.
