This past Saturday night was the 2017 West Branch Football Trivia Night, a fundraiser held every spring to raise money for the football team.

Once again, the night of fun was held at the Brick Arch Winery in downtown West Branch and featured over 20 teams vying for the prestigious Trivia Champion trophy. For a fourth year in a row, Bo's Bruisers (formerly Bower Power) took home the trophy.

During "half time" of the festivities, six donated items were auctioned off. Those six items included autographed KISS memorabilia, a TaylorMade golf driver, VIP tickets to the John Deere Classic golf tournament, tickets to a Chicago Cubs game, a boat ride on the Mississippi, and tickets to a Green Bay Packers game at Lambeau Field.

Add together admission and auction items, the night raised over $10,000 for the football team, which will go towards practice and game equipment.

Before the eight rounds of trivia questions started, a video put together by the 2017 team captains was shown to the audience, thanking them for their participation. Check out the clip below.
