- Form a team of friends, enemies, and/or casual acquaintances and create a team name.
- Between 9:30 and 10:00 pm, call the WRBC station at (207) 795-8793 to register your team.
- Tune into WRBC 91.5 FM or stream from wrbcradio.com (click “listen live” in the top right corner) from 10:00 pm to 6:00 am to participate. Teams of WRBC DJs will ask trivia questions live on-air and follow each question with a song.
- Before the song is over, call the WRBC station at (207) 795-8793 with the answer. The first team to call with the correct answer will be awarded 5 points, the second 4, the third 3, the fourth 2, and the fifth 1. If there are more than 5 teams, only the first five teams to call with the correct answer will get points.
