Dating for Nerds

Get lucky during a fate-themed singles mixer. Find your charm over rounds of board games and trivia with other unattached smarties.

Play the numbers during a Chance Encounters icebreaker. How it works: Attendees receive a list of 12 prompts. Guys and gals couple up and roll dice to determine the topic of conversation. Each of them takes a turn responding until time is up, then they part ways and meet new pairs.

Fortune favors the bold with drink specials such as the White Russian Roulette, the Magic 8 Ball Brew and the Drawing Straw-berries Martini.

And, hit the jackpot with giveaways like Schrodinger's cat decision makers and prank misfortune cookies.
