Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company (“HOFV” or the
“Company”) (NASDAQ: HOFV, HOFVW), the only resort, entertainment
and media company centered around the power of professional
football and owner of the Hall of Fame Village powered by Johnson
Controls, today shared details on Hall Of Trivia, its live weekly
football, fantasy and sports-themed trivia and entertainment show
airing exclusively on the HQ Trivia app every Thursday at 8 p.m.
EST. The show, which is co-produced by HQ Trivia and The Hall Of
Fantasy League (“HOFL”), HOFV’s fantasy sports brand, is hosted by
sports broadcaster Jeff Eisenband and features appearances from NFL
legends, as well as prominent sports and fantasy personalities.
Hall Of Trivia allows the most passionate sports fans to
participate in a fun and interactive competition directly from
their mobile and tablet devices. Each episode consists of topical
football and fantasy-themed questions, providing participants with
the opportunity to test their knowledge of the current NFL season
and the game’s storied history. Participants who answer all
questions correctly share in a standard cash prize of $2,500. A
special Thanksgiving edition of the show will feature a cash prize
of $10,000.
“We are thrilled to advance the Hall Of Fantasy League brand
with the HQ Trivia show, which offers our community the opportunity
to participate in the excitement of the current season,” said Mat
Sposta, Principal with HOFL. “Our goal for the show each week will
be to entertain fans and leverage key Pro Football Hall of Fame
talent while garnering attention for the HOFL as we look toward the
2021 NFL season. We look forward to announcing more details on the
structure of the HOFL and its rules in the coming months.”
In addition to the standard trivia format, the show offers fans
the chance to take part in a season-long “Start/Sit Fantasy Pick
‘Em Pool” contest in which participants are provided with two or
more NFL players in a given week and must select the player they
think will score more fantasy points. Tracked throughout the course
of the season, participants who accumulate the most correct
selections by the end of the competition will share a cash prize of
$10,000.
While the Hall Of Trivia format is primarily focused around its
trivia portion, the show also contains various segments devoted to
providing analysis and commentary around all of the week’s football
and fantasy action. Notably, the show has featured Hall of Famers
Curtis Martin and Anthony Muñoz, and plans to continue
incorporating more football legends into its programming throughout
the course of the season.
“Trivia is a huge part of the experience for so many sports
fans,” said Eisenband. “Whether it’s arguing at the bar or texting
friends in a group thread, sports enthusiasts are always debating
history and facts. With Hall Of Trivia, we are challenging football
fans to see how much they really know about the game they love. And
considering that so many people are stuck at home looking for some
joy in their lives during the pandemic , we hope we can bring them
a few minutes of fun – and maybe some extra cash – on Thursday
nights!”
The HOFL is the first community-backed national fantasy league.
Launching with 10 regionally based franchises in key U.S. markets,
HOFL teams will be managed by a dedicated front office of fantasy
experts and former NFL players. Participation in the league will
come in the form of staking which will allow the public to
financially back individual teams, become team stakeholders, and
gain access to exclusive content, communications, and team
governance features. The HOFL’s inaugural draft is expected to take
place in summer of 2021 and its first season will commence
alongside the 2021-22 NFL season. For more information visit
