We know you’re “Smarter” than a 5th Grader.
We want to know if you REMEMBER Being a 5th Grader!
This Fun filled game show is not only a game, but a
fun-filled tripdown memory lane.
Written specifically for this years high school through college seniors, questions all come from pop culture from 2004-2010 (and updated each year) so brush up on your one hit wonders, your news from those years and all those things you THOUGHT you’d remember forever because we’re about to put your memory to the test! You may even be asked to sing songs Karaoke style or do dances you thought you’d never do again – all so you can win cash and prizes!
They were the days of X-Box, of George W. Bush, of boy bands and attack drones. It was a time when all you had to do was learn the lyrics of songs, the cheat codes to games and watch TV. The internet was launching billionaires and it was the beginning of the iPhone age where entertainment was always available and in your hands.

We’ll need to following to be provided for the Silver/Bronze Level (Budget) Shows.
- Video Projector/Screen & Enough Cable to reach the Podium (Lectern)
- Podium (Lectern)
- Sound System that is appropriate to the venue (Ceiling PA’s are NOT recommended)
- Extension Cord with Power Strip – enough to reach the podium.
- Technician who knows how to access your sound/video
- 2 6 foot banquet style tables.
We bring just about everything needed for these shows. See tech rider on downloads tab for specific details, but here’s an overview of what we’ll need:
Electrical: Our equipment can run off of regular household current. We ask that 4 outlets, on 20 amp circuits, be available for our exclusive use.
If these outlets are further than 30′ away from the performance area then extension cords should be provided.
General Stage Lighting: A general stage wash is needed for the show. The lighting we carry is for effect and general illumination should be provided by the venue. Our Platinum level shows include full stage lighting.
Sound: We carry our own sound equipment for Beat the Banker
Load in/Load out assistance: We have a LOT of gear to load in. It’s all on wheels, so there’s no heavy lifting. We don’t require help, but we sure appreciate it when we get it and it puts our crew in a great mood for your show!
All of the above plus we strongly recommend a spider box or a direct power input as we will be drawing a lot of power. This is only for the platinum level shows as the lighting package is much more robust and intense.
One of our most popular ways of selecting contestants is “Scavenger Hunt” style ala the old “Let’s Make a Deal” game show. We’ll ask for someone with the most school flair, or someone with a picture of their pet on their cell phone, etc. This helps us to get fun, enthusiastic people on stage to play. Think of it as a quick audition.
You can also do a drawing for the opportunity, or have people preselected – but we HIGHLY RECOMMEND using our time proven ways. Just because someone has ticket number 2495 doesn’t mean they’ll be fun on stage. Our methods help us hedge our bets that we’ll have fun people on stage to put on a show!
We’ll ask you to provide a few things for this show. It leaves the big sets at home and uses readily available items from your campus. See “Technical Needs” on this page for those items. It also makes the show super affordable, especially for distant shows, as our host can fly to your show instead of drive.
