Regular features of the contest include Running Questions, Music Questions, and Trivia Stone. Music questions are sound bites of songs in which the teams must decipher the name of the song, Running Questions get the community involved with the teams, and Trivia Stone is a scavenger hunt within the community.

UW-Stevens Point has many interesting school myths: 1) if a student gets stuck in an elevator on campus, they will flunk their next exam
2) if you kiss someone when the St. Stan's church bell rings you will end up marrying that person
3) a supernatural figure is said to have moved objects in areas throughout Knutzen hall. UW-Stevens Point also has several school traditions, but the most unusual one involves potatoes. The "Spud Bowl" as it is called, includes the homecoming football game and numerous fun events before the game - many of which use potatoes!
