> Tres Hombres beat Street Academy by 16 points after the six-week competition. They won a barbecue party at Saratoga Race Course and a race named after the team on Labor Day. Tres Hombres, also last year's winner, is James Cooper and Bill Cooper of Poestenkill (two men on right in picture) and Dan Smith (center in red shirt) of Nassau. Albany Team Trivia host Kevin Baker, far left, stands with the overall winners.

 

 

What is it? During the six Thursdays of the Saratoga racing meet, Time Warner Cable hosts a two-hour team trivia game at Saratoga Race Course. This event is held in partnership with Saratoga Race Course, Ed Lewi Associates and Albany Team Trivia. Where is it? We're under a white tent near the Big Red Spring.

 

Prizes
We have raffle prizes and weekly awards for the winning teams, including an "I Won at Saratoga" T-shirt. The team with the most cumulative points at the end of six weeks wins a BBQ party and a race named after the team at the track on Labor Day. Each day a unique network sponsor donates prizes and promotes their products.

 

All the money donated by trivia players for raffle prizes goes towards Ronald McDonald House Charities. We raised $685 in six weeks.
