THURSDAY, MARCH 16

“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” Trivia
Louisville Comedy Club

The event listing already took the best IASIP references before I could, so I’m just gonna link to that description. (Lazily benefiting from someone else’s work: It’s what the “Sunny” gang would want.)

Speaking of pop culture references: If nautical nonsense be something you wish, drop into the Grain Haus for a night of both pirate music and punk music. Yarrrr.

Vaccination records (for dogs) are required.)
