Current Exhibits

The Midwest Trivia Contest

The exhibit contains materials from past Trivia Contests, including letters, newspaper articles, and photographs. The Trivia Contest, known by some as the “World’s Longest-Running Trivia Contest,” began in 1966. Sample questions from past contests are included in the exhibit, such as…

“What did Michel Lotito, Mr. Eat Everything, consume to gain his world record for the largest meal ever eaten?”

For the answer, visit the exhibit on the first floor of the library. The exhibit was created by Rebecca Hayes, Archives student worker.
