Trivia contests are simple to run yet incredibly versatile. You could run a custom Super Bowl trivia contest, road trip trivia (see featured contest), or even a Dr. Seuss Trivia contest. A popular strategy is to print a question in the paper or read it off on the air and have readers or listeners answer it online.

I am so thankful to KansasCity.com, Q104 and Northtowne Mitsubishi for presenting me with an opportunity of a lifetime. I won the car by filling out the trivia question everyday online and KansasCity.com. The event was a ton of fun and well organized, plus the people at The Kansas City Star were so kind and really on top of things. [I] want to thank everyone again for all they have done.” – Brea Ziegler, Contest Winner
