A six-minute introduction
If you’ve never heard of the contest, this is the fastest way in.
Each April, 90FM — the student radio station of UW–Stevens Point — runs a continuous trivia contest over the airwaves. Hundreds of teams play from basements, bars, dorms, and remote dial-ins for the entire weekend. Eight questions an hour are broadcast live; teams have the length of two songs to phone in their answer; each team gets one shot per question.
That’s the contest in one paragraph. The thing it is in practice is harder to describe — a 54-hour endurance event that doubles as the city’s biggest fundraiser for college radio, with rituals (the Friday parade, the Saturday and Sunday running questions, the Stone scavenger hunt) that have run for half a century.
How scoring works
The fewer teams that get a question right, the more points it’s worth. If only one team in the field nails it, that team earns 500 points. If hundreds get it, everyone gets 5. The full table lives on the Rules & Scoring page.

Why this site exists
The official site is 90fmtrivia.org. It is also where this site sources every fact, schedule, and sponsor. We built 90fmtrivia.info as an unofficial companion because the contest deserves a site you can actually share with someone who’s never heard of it — readable on a phone, easy to navigate, and current. We are not affiliated with 90FM, UW–Stevens Point, or Friends of 90FM.
If you take one thing from this site: the trivia contest is a fundraiser. Donate to Friends of 90FM. Buy merch. Visit a sponsor. Tell a friend.
